Agreed to all the above. Especially the charger until you figure it out.

Measuring the parasitic draw is straightforward, there are procedures written up and videos about it. Basically need a DMM (digital multimeter) and heed the reminders about keeping doors open (but the pins closed, so you can get into the car, but not pull power to the lights through the DMM and also let the car think you've gone away for a while while you make your measurements. Hook it up in-line and start pulling fuses and watch for a change.
