I own 4 Saabs (3 9000 and 1 900 convertible). My experience would say that a battery will go flat in a Saab after a couple of weeks. I don't know if it is the security system or what. I only have 2 cars registered at a time so 2 sit for long stretches of time. I am in the habit of disconnecting the ground wire to the battery. I can let them sit for several months, hook the cable up and they fire right up. If you give it a good drive tonight it should take the charge and start tomorrow. If you start it and let it idle for awhile it probably won't get charged enough.
