Default Battery charging

Hi all,

With the current times we live in, it looks like my Focus ST will be doing a lot of sitting around. Usually used on weekends only.

So I am thinking I may need to keep the battery charged to avoid killing the battery and also experiencing weird electrical gremlins low batteries can bring on.
Two questions,
1) recommended chargers, will a cheapie suffice as long as it has a trickle/maintenance setting. Something from repco or supercheap?
2) can I just connect it without disconnecting the battery from the car?

Thanks in advance.
