Battery Isolator - Parasitic Current
Does the typical battery isolator subject the vehicle battery to any parasitic current when they're in the "cut-out" mode (secondary battery disconnected)?

There are several ways to float charge the engine battery. I use what is easiest for my set-up.
For the C, I even made a 12v plug wire thing with a plug at each end (polarity is tricky there as they reverse where joined) and can plug one into the TV 12v socket on house and the other into the dash socket on engine. That floats the engine batt from the house batt. Meant for when parked off-grid on solar for a long time so the engine batt would need a float.
