Yes. Yes. Yes. A maintainer will keep the battery well conditioned and optimally charged.

You won't - same as above

Save yourself a few $ too and look into a C-tek maintainer. They make the Porsche Charge-o-Mat II (and many other OEM maintainers) but also sell under their own brand w/ more features and flexibility for 1/2 the price...

Good luck
