i have an autometer tacho in my gem, and i think it may be draining the battery
has this happened to anyone else?..like do i need to hook it up to accessories ?????

just get the tacho dyno tuned for optimal performance, that way you get a horsepower gain rather than battery loss...

Yeah man the Tacho should run on Ignition, or yeah accessories, so it's not always on. U shouldn't really have anything running constant unless it's a clock or something. I use to have my equalizer on constant and always wonder why my battery kept dying hehehe. hope it helps mate
cheers.
