Okay, I have learned a few things...
I apparently don't know really know much about using a multi meter, but I learned enough to know my batteries were charged to 12.78V.
I found that the TV amp was on.
I wasn't able to figure out how much anything really draws by pulling fuses and touching the terminals with a probe with the multi meter on the A with a line with three dots under it.
Three of the fuses have LED lights that came on when I pulled them and one is the propane detector... if I read it right on the multi meter, it pulls .01
I also tried pulling the negative cable and using the multi meter to touch it and the negative terminal... I couldn't make sense of any of the readings except when it read the same as the it did when I touched both terminals of the battery itself.
We will see tomorrow what the batteries read in the morning.
dee74, what did you do to resolve it? Get rid of the camper?
