If the storage is longer than 90 days or so, that means "topping them up" every so often. I do it once a month.....when I move the rig about 18 inches to help prevent permanent tire flat spots.
It has been my experience for long term storage to disconnect all batteries rather than having the rig plugged in. I also disconnect the chassis battery.
