Battery/Converter Question
I want to take the battery out of my TT and connect it to a trickle charger for the winter. Is there any problem with leaving the TT plugged in without a load on the WCO converter?

I've used the BatteryMinder from Northern Tools for years on my batteries over the winter. It pulses the battery to prevent the number one cause of battery death - sulfation.

Full-time battery monitoring automatically tests battery continually, supplying only the current needed to maintain battery at full charge
8-stage unit charges and maintains from 1 to 4 batteries at a time (12V batteries parallel-connected or two 6V batteries series-connected. NOTE: Never connect 2 or more batteries together in parallel before fully charging each and checking their condition. Failure to fully charge each battery and check their condition can result in a serious safety hazard)
Does not overcharge, regardless of time connected
High-frequency pulses safely remove sulfate from battery's plates that prevent the batteries from holding a full charge
No need to add water to maintenance-type batteries during long, non-use storage
