12v Constant DRAW
Hi guys, I have something 12v draining my batteries overnight. I have everything shut off on the camper, and it still drains them over night. Just put in new batteries as well. Still drains them...

Remove all 12v fuses from the distribution panel;
Take a multi-meter and put in the mode where you can see if
a circuit is drawing a current (usually no more than 10A);
Test each fuse and find out which circuit is drawing the current.
Now trace back to the appliance; I had the same issue and it turned out
to be the smake/CO2 detector and the fridge (even if it was off);
My batteries would drain in < 2 days;
Also - good point about the break away switch
