fully charge the battery off the car, leave it off the car for 10 days, refit and see what happens. It would be better if you have a test meter, charge the battery and see what voltage you get across the terminals, once you take it off charge and 10 days later.
I say 10 days as op said 10 days

Have you an ampmeter? You could then test what amperage is being drawn with everything turned off. screwfix do one that is not too expensive

even new batterys can be faulty, had one a coupe of years ago from Halfords but they changed it no problem
