Plugging in at home
Should I plug my 50 amp plug into my home when I am not using my motor coach? I have the proper adapters to do,this.

Hi reubenray,
Yes, it will keep the battery bank charged. You may wish to check to see if the converter (battery charger) is a 3 stage unit. If it is not, it is possible for it to overcharge the batteries and destroy them.
You may wish to find out if the converter charges the chassis battery. If it doesn't, add a trik-l-start or amp-l-start unit.
Running an absorption fridge uses about 5 kwh per day. Where I live that would be a cost of $18.25 per month. So, in your shoes, I'd turn off the fridge--and start it 24 hours before a trip.

Will having it plugged into only a 15 amp outlet keep the batteries charged up? I am getting ready to get a slab installed at my house.
