My 2000 chevy has constant 12v going to my trailer at all times. Does this serve any purpose on a trailer that has 230ah battery? I'm worried about forgetting to unplug it if I camp hooked up. I was considering putting in a relay but now I'm wondering why I would even want it at all. My trailer is only pulling less than 1 amp with fridge on propane. Do any of you disconnect the wire?
For 1 night, I wouldn't even think about it. More than that, yes. I've always had 2 batteries in my FW (now 2x 6v) and my D'max has 2 starting batteries. Frankly, I'd probably be fine for 4-5 days if I had to push it and I was fully charged to start with. Personally, I don't envision a time I'd leave my truck hitched for that long, so it would get unplugged as a matter of course.
