RG batteries are very sensitive to being left in a partially

I plug in the trickle-charger every time I come back from a flight and
leave it on until I go again (lead-acid battery). Mechanic concurs that
this is a good idea. I usually fly once or twice/week. Sounds like this
would be a good thing for an RG battery as well?

I can't imagine why this would be a good idea for a plane flown at least
once a week regardless of what type of battery you use. I use a regular
lead acid battery in my Bonanza and used the same in my 182 when I had
that. No reason a battery won't last 5-6 under these conditions.
