There are several things in an RV that will continue to slowly drain the coach
battery even when you think everything is turned off. One of the leading culprits
for battery drain is the LP gas leak detector. On a lot of RVs this is designed
to operate all of the time. There are other items that we overlook sometimes
like the power booster on the TV antenna, or a clock that operates off of 12
Volts. If your RV is not equipped with a battery disconnect switch you can
purchase a device that installs right on the battery post. When you're not
using the RV you simply lift a lever up and it disconnects all 12 Volt power
going to the RV.
