when camping at an RV park (w/ shore power) - with out the dog, for more than a week, i'll switch the batteries off (no need to charge them).
in storage i switch the batteries off & use a separate battery maintenance charger (not the converter/charger in the coach).
When we travel with the Dog - we always leave the batteries ON, even when connected to shore power - if the pedestal / shore power is lost & the coach temperature rises (above 80*) the EC-30W will automatically start the generator so the AC can run / cool the coach & keep the dog safe.
When DRY camping (aka race track) w/out shore power we leave the house batteries on & let the EC-30W remote start monitor the battery charge leave. If the batteries are run down while were away, EC-30W will start the gen & charge the batters.
