I'm currently working at an RV park and the parasitic draw in my E450 has already drained the chassis battery once.
Two comments:
1) Why does this occur ? My E450 will sit for weeks and weeks and still be good. AFAIK the only parasitic drain is the memory for the radio and some engine computers.
2)I really don't think that 5 watts is enough to do any actual good.
I start mine every 30 days or so and let it run for 15-30 minutes.
This charges both sets of batteries.....if I remember to throw the battery disconnect switch for the coach.
