I "store" my car in my attached garage during the winter months (typically November to April). What battery charger do you use?
battery tender , plug it in and forget it.
or simply remove the battery and store it at room temp shouldn't drain or use electricity the whole winter, unless you have a climate controlled garage like mine they store fine here in Colorado
Battery tender Jr.Have had the same one for over 15 years and it still work great.Pick one up at any motorcycle shop.I have 2 4 wheelers and 5 antique cars, it is always plugged into one of them.My oldest 4 wheeler is a 2004 that I bought new and it still has the original battery.

I make sure mine in charged 100%, and leave it in the car .It is in a building with no heat or power, and starts every spring with no assistance .
Thats about the worst thing you can do, not for the battery but for the engine and exhaust system.I like to start the car a couple time through the winter. Usually don't run it long, so charge battery each time. Just a basic charger, no need to continually charge.
