any idea ?
is it possible that the starter puts itself in short circuit and empties the battery by driving ? I drive only by the day, and just after 10 miles, good new battery is empty
thanks for help

Factory gauges or any add ons?
Sounds like the alternator/regulator are not adjusted correctly
It would be good to see what the differences in the voltage are while driving or what is coming out of the alternator.
As mentioned a small multimeter check across the battery terminals to watch your voltage draw/changes at RPMs is a quick easy way to go.
Also are you required to drive with your lights on all the time over there?
