Is that enough to kill a battery? Batt. will go dead after about 2-3 weeks. It's the clock in the stereo that drawing the power.

Depends on your battery's size, age, condition, etc. 60 milliamps ? yeah I'd say so.
Leave the positive disconnected if you don't drive it that often.

How much do other clocks draw?

Assume you have a 75 amp hour battery, which means that if you discharge it evenly over a period of 20 hours it will put out 3.75 amps continuously. If you draw .060 amps evenly, the battery will drop below 10.5v after a mere 52 days. 60ma is a lot of draw for keep-alive stuff, most would be a tenth of that.

Um yeah, those culculations are right, start looking for another source of current draw. Anything else that's on all the time or not stock ?

Thanks that's the info I needed.

just drive the car more often, and you won't have to worry about it at all.
