the only time you want to use the battery disconnect is when it's in storage with no power to the TT.
I have to remove my batteries while in storage because they seem to grow legs and walk away, so I take them out of the TT even between trips and the dang thing is parked on the side of my house! I have security cams and lights now, but that was only AFTER the legs grew..
Good luck!

I actually have our batteries and propane tanks locked down like Fort Knox as we are no strangers to thievery in our area. The person we bought the trailer from had a metal bar with master locks over the batteries but took it,had I known how expensive it was to replace I would have probably requested it stayed as part of the sale. I was able to find one on amazon called a Batteryshackle for about $130 which I figure is much less than having to replace 2 batteries that learn how to walk overnight.On our first trip the people next were full timers and actually mentioned how we seemed to have everything locked down and was stealing an issue in these parts to which we replied "I dont know but I also dont want to find out." :@)
