I installed a battery cutoff switch in the back, largely for safety and because I am frequently doing something where the battery should be disconnected and it is such a chore for me too get to the battery. Works great!

Ditto...a trickle or float charger does the trick even when sitting for long periods of time with the battery connected.
BMW has the consumer cut-off which should leave very little electrical draw...enough for a trickle or float charger to keep things up to snuff. But disconnecting the battery isn't a bad thing...it just makes extra steps to hop in the car to take her for a spin when you do get ready to drive her.

I have not had a chance to check what is draining my battery yet. But I noticed tonight that while I have my charger connected, I have one of the driver side headlights dimly on. When I disconnect it, the headlight goes off. The headlight selector is set to off. Is this normal? I never noticed it before when I needed to charge the battery.
