Schumacher's SEM-1562A low amperage charger is an ideal way to maintain a battery's charge for people who don't use their vehicle everyday, who go short distances, or who do lots of stop-and-go driving. It can also be used to charge small batteries for ATVs, motorcycles, snowmobiles, and lawn tractors, or even for batteries that have a long storage time. In cold climates, they're indispensable for keeping batteries warm overnight and ready for starting.
Product Features:
*6-volt and 12-volt battery charger; automatically changes from full-charge to float-mode monitoring to prevent overcharging
*Ideal for keeping batteries charged while in storage
*Rugged plastic housing
*Includes charger, jump cables, ring connectors
*7.1 by 10.5 by 5.9 inches; 5 pounds; 1-year limited warranty

This review is from: Schumacher SEM-1562A 1.5 Amp Speed Charge Maintainer (Automotive)
I work from home and very rarely drive...when I go out typically I take my wife's car or she drives. In fact, I failed to drive my truck for about 6 weeks and it wouldn't start (Battery was dead). Saw this on sale for 20 dollars on Amazon and picked it up - when it arrived I hooked it up and 4 days later was fully charged / battery worked great again. Key here is the 4 days - this really is a slow/trickle charge so don't expect it to be very speedy...there is a guide in the manual where it says how long things might take based on CCA value associated with the battery you have. It did the trick for me and so I'm happy with it.
