Electric steps and battery draw
Anyone else have this issue? It's been over a month since our last trip in our Class C. We have to close the step due to how much space it takes up on our driveway. I'd say on average it's used twice ...

I believe my step controller draws 23 mA continuous (parasitic) current. It's my largest chassis battery parasitic draw.
It's a bad idea to rewire house battery to power steps. You'll lose your steps if house battery is dead and you take off with steps extended.
I use my solar controller's secondary output to keep the chassis battery charged. It's time to think about solar.
