I think for the most you will find that most of us use a storage charger on our cars. They are cheap and easy to use. It maintains the power to the car over storage.
Most of us hook in the plug in cable that will make it an easy hook up with one plug.

With my C5s, I had the battery hooked up to a Deltran Battery Tender Plus - worked great.
For my C7, I use the factory CTEK branded battery tender.

A word to the wise on those type disconnects; This came from C&S Corvettes. They had a C5 in their shop with one of those disconnects. It had been to another Corvette shop, and a GM dealer, before it got to C&S. Nobody knew why the car would stall, and not crank over to restart. It had an intermittent voltage issue. C&S figured it out immediately. The disconnect had a thread that wasn't machined all the way to a shoulder. It bottomed out before making a good connection. So make sure when you get one of these units, it tightens up all the way to the contacts, not until it just feels like it's tight.....
