Turn off your battety disconnect and just leave the batteries in the MH. No nred for a charger as there is no discharge. If they won't hold a charge all winter disconnected they need replacing.
I consider this to be incorrect information as they can loose up to 5% charge per month.
Big temperature shift from South Louisiana and Michigan this time of year. Temperature affects how fast a battery discharges, faster in warm weather, slower in cold weather. My boat sits in Michigan from Oct. to April with the battery sitting in it just disconnected, never a problem.
Never thought to look where he is located. Right you are. If I did that I would have to buy new batteries every year.
