Another idea if your interested would be a marine deep cycle battery. Their designed to power all the way to nothing and recharge without damage to the battery.
Regular batteries don't like this cycle idea as they fail faster. The only trickle charge issues I have is boiling all the water out of the battery exposing the metal plates inside. Then the battery is shot not too long after that.
