battery goes dead
My battery started to die after a week or two of sitting unused, I got a new battery with 850 or so cranking amps. Spinss the motor fast when first charged but it dies aafter 4 or 5 days of not using the Vette, Any suggestions as to what to look for that may be draining the battery? Thank you for any help. 
Found the problem the dash light switch was turned all the way to the right and that kept the courtesy lights in the foot wells on. Dumb thanks for your replies.

Any aftermarket stereo equipment or alarm system? might consider a battery tender.. GM makes one for the C6's that plugs into the cig lighter and keeps it maintained if you dont want to put one on the battery. should not drain that fast tho. do a Google "how to test a power draw" and start eliminating different parts of the car... (ie, power seats, audio system, dome lights, ect..) I hate electrical so i would have someone look at it and narrow it down for me..
