The problem isn't with the 12V battery. It's with the hybrid batteries. Well, at least as it concerns hybrid owners. The warning in the owner's manuals refer to not leaving the hybrid batteries connected if you plan on parking for longer than four weeks.

I use a "battery tender" on my motorcycle when I don't plan on riding it for a while. I think they're great investments.
