car not used for long periods
As I go away for long periods, 3 months sometimes, what is the best way to stop the battery from totally discharging. Should it be disconnected or are there some kind of trickle devices that can be connected to stop from discharging?

Battery Conditioning Trickle Chargers are best. See: www.honestjohn.co.uk/faq/storing-a-car
