And the concensus is:
-Some people like to take their batterys inside for the winter, some don't.
-Some people like to put a trickle charger on and other people don't.
-Some people like to leave their RV plugged in to shore power and some don't.
-A fully charged battery will not freeze until -70F.
-A deleted battery will freeze much sooner than -70F.
-Some people like to argue that their way is the only way, some people don't.
To all that agree, please stand.
Now back to the OP.
If I were going to leave the batterys in the RV I would install a disconnect switch to your battery bank and connect a small battery tender to keep them in top shape.
