Unless you have a very heavy 4D or 8D case size battery taking the batteries out & keeping them in a somewhat warmer garage is no big deal. Give them a maintenance charge every month or so.
Since you have power to the unit unplug the converter for good measure & plug your dehumidifier in somewhere inside.
I just put mine into hibernation. It is stored indoors & gets nothing till April. No dehumidifier. No battery tender. Nothing. The trailer is dead.
Our fiver goes indoors as well and the batteries are in my garage so the fiver is dead. I charge them once a month or so with a battery charger.
If I were running a dehumidifier in the trailer, I would unplug the converter and disconnect/remove the batteries.
