A&Q about 350Z
Q:
I need to charge my battery since i urgently had to leave for 2 months and the battery is dead.
I got a charger which can charge at 2A and 10A.
1) Can i charge it in place or do i need to remove the battery.
2) Do i need to remove any fuses?
I was going to just boost it and then run it for a while but someone told me that would make the alternator work hard.
Comments?

For God's sake.............remove the battery from the car when charging it.
A:
lol - and remove the battery cables first, too (i figured that might not be so obvious given the original post)

Remove the battery cables and then charge the battery. No need to remove it from the car. Do not jump start the car or use a booster as you can fry components. Just charge the battery and when it is charged you can start the battery.
A:
....but, I'm not sure why you would remove it from the car. I would think you'd put the charger on its lower setting, making sure of course, that you hooked up the cables + to + and -to - and charge it until you can start the car. BTW, letting a battery lose charge and recharging it on a regular basis will really shorten its liefe.
A:
Just sell the car and get a new one...
Sorry, it's been a long day...

If you must jump start the car get a set of jumper leads with a surge protector
