Currently I keep it plugged into my household power 24/7 but this won't be an option at the storage place. How do some of you tend your battery when storing your RV a distance away?
I would have thought this obvious ... :W
If the battery is fully charged when you store the trailer disconnect it physically or with a disconnect switch so parasitic draw doesn't deplete the battery while the trailer is in storage. If stored in this condition for a few weeks at a time the battery will self discharge only a small amount and be fine for your next trip.
If the battery is not fully charged when you store the trailer then remove it and take it home with you where you can put it on a charger to restore & maintain a full charge until your next trip OR leave the battery on the trailer & connected and invest in a roof mount solar panel of sufficient size to recharge & maintain a full charge on the battery until your next trip.
Personally I'd take the battery home as that also eliminates any chance that "sticky fingers" will want your battery more than you. ;)
