2021 400- wintering 6v batteries

Gkopan

OK to leave 6v batteries in camper on shore power through WI winter, indoor unheated?

I'd recommend a battery maintainer with a desulfation feature.  This avoids running the converter for months just for a float voltage and provides some battery reconditioning in addition.

Thanks. Do you have a specific recommendation? This means removing from the trailer? Do you need 1 for each battery?

This is a newer version of the unit I use.  It can be connected across both batteries (12 volts) as they are installed.  Just disconnect the trailer from shore power.  All 12 volt devices will be operable in the trailer.
