IF you can I'd really suggest a CTEK3300 battery tender.
not a trickle charger, but a battery tender.

you can even set this model of battery tender to de-sulfate your battery, and it prolongs the life.

I store my 850i for 4-5 months, during winter, under a secure parking garage 30 kms from my house and this battery tender has NEVER caused me issues. Ive been using it the last 3 winter seasons.

not expensive to buy, and not expensive to run/on electricity. Only kicks in when needed. Research it if you can.
