Never had this problem.. and that covers several Saabs over the years. Suggest you remove the battery positive cable between 'runs'. Can't discharge (other than the normal self discharge rate of a lead acid battery) IF it's not connected.
Also, religiously charge the battery from a battery charger EVERY 3 weeks, whether you want to or not.
You might use a Voltmeter from the battery + post to the disconnected Cable .. just to check if there is a Vampire power drain happening.
