I am thinking of using Battery Brain. Any suggestions are welcome.

I normally don't go here...but I read your posting and you must find another electrically competent repair technician...
just because an auto repair business repairs vehicles does not guarrantee they know anything about electrical circuits and operation..basicly they change parts at your expense....you are not alone with this type of incompetent repair shops...robbery..
with your problem, I would ,,,with your vehicle shutdown,,, monitor the current being drained from the battery....this current should be 50-200MA......if this is higher, you then start removing fuses until this current drops to the range I stated...
now with this knowledge,,,you throw it at the auto tech...
when he gives you some B/S line or don't understand, get in your vehicle and drive away fast...
