I won't be in there to be exposed to potential gases. Boat owners do this. I have taken care of my battery and I want to get maximum use from it. ThX

Since mine is in storage I trip the battery disconnect so the house battery is "disconnected". I then remove the negative terminal of the main battery. Worked like a charm for the 5 months of winter storage in a storage lot.
When it was at my house I had the RV plugged into a 15 amp house outlet and then had a battery tender attached to the engine battery (through an outlet in the RV cable storage area). Also worked like a charm...
