It only takes one time too many for overextended use. Then bam...a dead battery. That's never happened to me either, but then again, I always run the engine periodically every so often just to make sure the house battery doesn't completely drain. It's also dependent on the condition of the battery and even the quality of the battery. My house battery is the top of the line Sears Diehard Platinum series and is relatively new, so it would theoretically be in better condition than a lesser battery that is older. Again, it's all theoretical. Even if my house battery were to die, I have multiple portable car jumper batteries to revive my house battery, so I would never need to rely on anyone else for asking for a jump. Better to be safe is the only thing I'm trying to say.
