Stock oil pressure sensors are known to have issues. But if your using a really thin viscosity when it's still relatively warm and/or you have some fuel dilution that will make a difference in what you see at the gauge.
I think if you still have the wax thermopellet in place that will also effect indicated pressure as well.

I prefer a quality battery tender to just unplugging the battery. I leave the coolant full but it's one of the things that typically gets changed in the spring when the car comes out of storage. I typically put the car up on stands and off the suspension. Not saying there's no value to them, but I've never used foggers.
