In reply to battery_boi. It might depend on the battery type and maintenance. Some are more prone to sulphation than others, especially if not properly cared for.

Totally into the techy solution like solar panels. My rig is decked out and it’s awesome to see the differences. Still learning the ropes but this article helps.

about those parasitic loads, does this mean things like the clock on my microwave? do I need to unplug those or something? not sure how all this tech works. :/

if my RV battery dies fast, does it mean it just wants to get back on the road again? like, it’s bored sitting in my driveway? lol

Every time I see an article like this, I wonder if it’s just trying to sell me on the idea of buying more gadgets for my RV. Like, do I really need solar panels or is this just another upsell?

for anyone new to this, always check your batteries before and after trips. lost a good one cuz I neglected the maintenance part. it’s simple but easy to forget lol.

i don’t get it, you say sulphation is a big deal but my buddy keeps his RV parked for months and never has issues? are you sure you’re not exaggerating a bit Paul?

Really loved this breakdown! The part about solar panels was especially enlightening. Never thought about how they could extend battery life. Thanks for sharing, Paul Clayton!

hey, was reading this and got to thinking – how bad is it really to let your RV battery drain completely? I’ve done it a few times and wonder if I’m killing my battery life. Any tips for keeping them charged without plugging in all the time?
