If I was leaving the car for a few weeks I think I would fully charge up the battery using my trickle charger, if it's a bit low when you go away then it's odds on it will be flat when you come back.

I just checked my 12v charge again with my little £6 (Amazon) 12v cigarette socket gadget

It is still showing 12.4v in accessory mode and over 14v while running and charging

I’m happy with both figures particularly as most of my journeys are pretty short town driving
After owning a Toyota Yaris Cross Hybrid with all the (flat) battery problems they are having I was a bit concerned when I got my Jazz which is only doing short runs, my concerns were unfounded, the battery is consistently showing 12.4V when tested, the Toyota would show 11.2V with the same usage which prompted me to charge the battery but in fairness it always started. I do charge it up every 3 weeks or so even when it's showing over 12V, it's no trouble and a bit easier than charging the Toyota
