I failed to mention this isn't about a new battery. I'm nursing my last battery. The 4yr old OEM Continental 24 that came with the camper.
If you're able to keep a charge voltage of under 13.6 V and are able to keep an eye on the electrolyte levels, you could keep a charge on the battery continuously. Batteries like that sort of thing. :)
