I will be putting my fifth wheel trailer in storage for five weeks. Currently, the battery is fully charged. No shore power available at storage site.. All on-board systems will be powered off.Question:Should I disconnect the battery?Thanks for your help.

There is stuff in the trailer that won't shut off, disconnect the battery.

K Charles and sch911.....thanks.

Yes, adding a disconnect switch is a worthwhile upgrade for the future...

Or add a Solar Charging System!

adding a battery disconnect switch is so simple and cheap to do.
no need to schlep the battery back and forth or fool with the taking the cable off.

what draw do those parasitic loads have and can they be offset by a small, lay on the dash panel?
