Is there any negative effect of having a battery that small?
i think you have something like 8 chances to start the car... if it doesnt start the first 8 times (example: you stall or the starter is going bad) you will kill the battery.

new cars like ours usually start the first time though

you also cant used the accessories for too long without charging the battery.

iv'e put my windows up and down at least 20 times with out killing the battery... thats a lot IMO
