Charging RV Batteries
I bought one of the knife-blade disconnects for my RV battery. When I get home from a trip and get everything squared away and the unit parked, I flip up the knife switch and totally disconnect one of the battery's poles from the electrical circuit.... effectively isolating the battery. Many months later when I get ready to get ready to go, the battery has plenty of charge to operate the landing feet on the 5'ver. Before I got the knife switch, I took the battery out of the 5'ver and stored it on a wooden bench in the garage.
There's a lot of hidden watt-suckers on modern RV's and they will drain the battery even when you think everything is off.
