Plugging in at home

Don't know about others but I like having the RV ready to roll or occupy at will.

Plugged in keeping batteries charged.....fridge ON (provided rig is set up level)

Doesn't cost much monthly and it is ready if needed.

Our 5ver gas been plugged in since new 24/7 365 for 5 years during winter storage I just turn the batt. Disconnect switch to off. I check the battery water and volts monthly.

You shouldn't need an adapter if you have a 50 amp RV outlet.

Hi,

I would not plug in until 3 days before a trip.

I plug in and let the inverter/converter keep her properly charged up all summer while sitting.I don't bother running fridge.
keeps the house and chassis batterys fresh and ready to roll

Plug it in. Also check that the chassis battery stays charged.
13.2 to 13.5 volts is good.

Agree.

To which one of the two above? They have completely different answers:h

I used to keep my unit plugged in, but then figured that I should let the solar do it's thing, to keep the batteries up. It's been fine for the past two years. I run the genset (usually every month) to exercise it, so the rest of the systems (I'll put the A/C on to work the seals, etc) get a chance to run.

Now, if you ever plan to have visiting family stay in the RV (as a guest house), you may want to plug in:)

I plug mine in for 1 night a week when not in use. Just to keep the batteries up, the frige running for a night, etc.

Meffrig, I certainly would plug in if you can. It will keep the batteries charged up and you can run the fridge on electric.
