Battery Disconnect

Battery Disconnect
I have kind of a general question.
My car (94 civic) seems to keep killing its batteries. After the car sits for about 1.5 - 2 weeks a new battery would be dead. I don't think its the alternator because the car never has a problem if i drive it ~3 or more times a week.
I'm sure there are switches that will disconnect the battery for theft protection but i have never been in the market for one of these and i need help in what to get.
What i want is to basically disconnect everything from my battery, I don't care about my radio loosing its settings or anything like that...I just want to be able to flip a switch, while sitting in the drivers seat so my battery stops dieing.
If anyone knows what the problem could be i am also open to suggestions to actually fix the problem. I've checked grounds and there is no noticable short in any of the wires.
Thanks to anyone who reads and responds

Re: Battery Disconnect
im leaning to a short circuit.
you can install a kill switch to the battery. so then your out of the car, just put on the swtich and it will stop all current.
