Update - I brought the battery home and put it on a battery maintainer for a few days. I reinstalled the battery this morning and brought the car home. (My contractor doesn't work on the weekend, so the risk of damage is reduced.)

I drove the car 50 miles today in a series of 10-15 mile trips. Unfortunately, the car turns over very slowly (I didn't think it was going to start a couple of times). I haven't had the battery tested yet, but I guess that is not a good sign.

I'm reluctant to buy a new battery right now because the car will be spending most of its time in storage during the next two months. I guess I could take the new battery out, bring it home and put it on the maintainer each time I return the car to storage.

Any thoughts?
