Now with my ///M i'm doing exactly the same thing ,and so the answer to your question is "yes" ,easely 7-8 years and more...
BTW...last winter my car sat for more than 4 months in my garage on my CTEK,don't drive with the ///M on roads with road salt and ice ,after the hibernation the ///M started just perfect,and this was another proof that a battery tender is needed for our cars !

Lol. You reference your link to your tender any chance you get! Thanks to you I bought one and don't even need it.
