Is it better to be hooked to short power in storage? or not?

I just found a storage place that not only has covered storage (metal roof/exposed sides), but it also has 30 and 50 amp shore power. In the past, I've had our TT stored in the open with no connect...

Our trailer also has been plugged in 24/7/365 for almost 20 years. It all depends on your converter and whether it is a "smart" converter or not. We have a Progressive Dynamics Inteli-power converter with a Charge Wizard.
This maintains the battery well and will not allow it to overcharge. Water loss is minimal. I usually check it once a year.
