Wheel bearing repacking

How often do you repack the RV wheel bearings? I'm getting many different opinions on this question.

      I repack my bearings every fall before I park the TT.  I also carry my IR thermometer and check my hub temps every morning after about 50 miles of travel.   If I have a warm bearing, I can repack it right away.  It would not take me very long to strip t down and repo it.  I do carry a pretty good tool kit, jack, and stand.  I have never had to do it on the road.

      We put 3000 to 10000 miles on annually.
