New battery has been installed for a week...

I have driven it with the new battery for a handful of trips now, and the warning light has not returned. As it's not a DD for me, I'll need a few more start/stop cycles before claiming victory.

[Edit] Added info...
Had almost 3 weeks with the new battery and no return of the evap fault, then it came back. Seems I get the fault light/code when restarting a warm-ish engine.
Cold? No problem.
Hot? No problem.
Operating temp only 20-30 greater than cold + restart ~5 min later? Fault code.

Will replace the part once weather warms up and I don't need the garage space for winter storage...
