Slow cookers that are UL rated are no more dangerous then any other appliance in your RV. Including your electric water heater element, your TVs in standby, your computer in standby, your plugged in chargers, all of which you likely leave on. Or your heat pump when it's cold out. You can put them in the sink when traveling too. And your meal is all ready when you arrive (if you have an inverter to plug it into).
I had a bad experience with leaving a heating appliance on while at home when I was young and stupid. Old habits die hard. Also had a properly sized transformer doing some work in my house while I went out for dinner, came home and it had come close to melting down. UL listed item too. So, I know I'm surrounded, and I don't tin foil everything in the house, just those things that give me some anxiety.
Strange, probably. We all have something that makes us a bit twitchy.
