Hey All,
Just curious if you have ever measured the parasitic draw on your camper. I started probing 1 fuse at a time with an ammeter, to see what's using power when it's just sitting the driveway. I decided to pull the positive battery cable and check the load at that point. Came up with .4 amps. Jeez, after a few days that's almost 30 amps for just the radio and propane alarm! Just curious how that compares
to what your campers are pulling when sitting unused.
Mine was about .3 amps so I installed cutoff switches for the radio, propane alarm and my cell booster.
