Am I shortening my battery life?
We have not been able to go out much in the last year so I have kept the 53r plugged in at home. I check the two Cr235 6v batteries monthly and top off as needed (which is not much). The 5er has a WFC...

Morning, Thanks for deciphering some of the Crown info. Made note of 14.5 TC and 15.5 EQ! Can you tell me what C20 as it relates to charge rate please? I do have a good Fluke meter and SG meter, but not an amp meter or probe. Yes We do most of our camping off the grid. Currently 14days is the most at a time due to work issues. So far the 5r stays connected to shore power and the batteries via the converter when we are not out. I have already purchased the second set of CR235's but they have not been installed as I need to build a battery box for all four. I can order the power supply and work on the TC and EQ charge before I install the second set to get the charging correct. I will check the SG today even though the batteries have been disconnected from shore power for three days, but are still powering the Victron, propane alarm, stero, ect. parasitic draws. Again thanks for the additional guidance!!
