If you have a solenoid based battery combiner that's controlled by the engine run circuit, you can just put the key in the run position (without starting the engine) for a spell to connect the batteries and give the chassis battery a little boost. I often do this when exercising my generator during storage periods. Yes, it does leave the engine computer and vent fan and so forth energized, but if you're on shore power that's no big deal.
I thought leaving the key turned burnt out the points. :) Oh wait---.
