Class c battery

[cherv]

What do you do to maintain batteries during winter storage? We used to remove the battery from our tt each winter and use a battery tender pluss to maintain it

I have removed both the batteries ( house battery & the chassis battery) and set them up with a trickle charger.

You could order and install one of these.

But you will need to leave the motorhome plugged in, we do after installing a 50 (or 30) amp circuit years ago.

Where does it get its power from to keep battery charged. Doesn't battery tender plus do the same thing? What am i missing..

If I just leave my Greyhawk plugged into a/c power over the winter, will that charge either or both my coach and chassis batteries?

The power to and thru the Trik-L-Start is supplied by the motorhome converter/charger which by itself only charges the coach batteries when on shore or generator power.

We prefer an all-in-one configuration and have moved our Trik-L-Start between our 3 motorhomes over the past 15 years.
We look at our motorhome as a self-contained RV and except for fuel and water should not need any 'external connections'.

The coach batteries are already covered by the converter/charger. The Trik-L-Start will create a connection from the charger to the chassis batteries.
