They are getting a little "long in the tooth" now....many over 20 years old. The grounds, relays, switches and connectors don't work like they used to.

As stated, disconnect the neg lead during long term storage. All snowbirds at my condo does this and no battery problems when they return. Same with stored boats out of water.
