You need to fix the draw, leave a trickle charger on it all the time, or put a battery cut off switch on it. I leave a trickle charger on mine all the time as it can sit for a month at a time without being used.
Thanks for the ideas. Is there a quick way to test for a parasitic draw? In my (limited) past experience, it's been a pain to chase them down and, given that I only use it every few weeks, not really an issue to disconnect the battery.
