Default Unplug battery?

Do i need to unplug the battery in my car when it is off and not being used?

Or can I leave everything plugged in as long as everything is turned off?

Thanks.

Better to unplug, even everything turned off there is a very little current draw.

It can kill your battery if it's already empty or almost empty after a run for exemple.

+1. It's happened to several people. Always unplug.
