I'm not new to tenders, and I've never experienced any issues in the past, but I do believe the tender I had caused the issues with the battery. Maybe the fact it was an older one. But I'll throw the bike on the new tender now and then. Just to keep a piece of mind.

I just take the battery out of the bike when the weather gets to cold to ride. Then in the spring I put the tender on for a day and then put it back in the bike. The battery stays warm in the basement during the winter months.
