What did you do to your Toy Hauler today???
This is always a fun thread to watch so I thought I would start one here.

I use to leave my trailer plugged in until I put in a battery disconnect switch. My two batteries would only last a few weeks when unplugged due to all the little parasite lights that stay on all the time. Now, I can unplug indefinitely and turn off the batteries.
I didn't think of this. Our trailer came with a disconnect. Can I plug back in and turn battery off?
Yes, you can but things can get more complicated if you disconnect your batteries and leave the trailer plugged in. Some things even 110 appliances require 12 volt power to work. For example if you have your fridge on 110 and your batteries turned off and you loose power your frige will not convert to propane.
I keep it simple. Fully charge the batteries, unplug the trailer from 110 and disconnect the batteries... Test the voltage at full charge after resting so you know what it is, then weekly to see how your bats are doing.
I have had mine unplugged and disconnected for months and have almost no discharge...
