We normally keep our trailer plugged into 115v power at our storage facility, however we will now be losing power for anywhere up to 9 months.. Question (1). If I install a battery disconnect switch on batteries, how long can I expect the 2 year old batteries to remain usable for towing before requiring recharging? Question (2) If I decide to take a portable generator to the trailer every so often, and plug it into trailer to let the converter maintain the batteries, how big of generator should I use? I have access to both a 1000w Honda generator and a 2000 watt Yamaha generator. Comments or Opinions..
If it is outdoor where there is sunshine often, then a simple solar trickle charger (<$50) should keep your batteries topped off.
