Not a mistake, just part of the learning curve. I did something similar, found the drain from the backlight on the radio discharged battery over a couple week period.

We TRY to get out every month, but this year work :M got in the way, fiver sits at a storage yard without power, after three months and a couple visits to do work to (run out slides without connecting to TV), batteries still almost fully charged. I could still run out slides, and run absorption refer overnight.
