Thanks for all the comments. Great input.
This is our first Class A in many years.
Now I need to find out if the slides are run by the chassis battery or the house battery bank?
Secondly, if I'm hooked up to shore power, does that charge the chassis battery too?
Third, if Im hooked up to shore power, do I still need to run the motor?
My intention is not to save gas, but rather in inconvenience of running the engine just to power up the slides.
