It's time to have a Battery Tender on my car when it's being stored for anything over a couple of weeks. $45 is cheap insurance towards avoiding a battery replacement.
Great minds think alike. 1mgator and I got ours two days ago too! Ctek Multi US7002.

My car sat all week, drove it to work and back and then plugged it in. It charged for quite a bit before going to full status so it looks like driving it didn't bring it back all the way.
