If the battery is going dead from EOC, you need to monitor voltage to decide when the charge is too low and you need to leave the engine on. (A $3 harbor freight voltmeter will let you do this.)
You probably already know that deeply discharging a conventional starting battery (eg. to the point it won't start the car) damages it, reducing its capacity even further each time it happens.
If you're trying to save money, having to replace your battery every year or so will cancel a big chunk of your gains!
