Thank you for having and participating in this incredibly helpful forum.
I recently bought the following battery charger off of amazon:
12 Volt Battery 7 Stage Smart Charger: VMAXTANKS BC1215 12V 15A Fully Automatic Smart Charger for VMAX Solar Series Batteries
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Questions:
1. Can I install and 'permanently' attach this charger (in the rear battery compartment, above my batteries, with ring terminal connectors) to the twin 12v batteries and
charge them while the camper is closed during storage? I saw a post where Bill did this with his smaller-amped 3-stage trickle charger, so I assume that this would be fine with the 7-stage charger, correct?
2. When in storage, should I just plug in the charger for a day or so per month, and/or when I see that the voltage is below 12.2v? Or, can I safely leave it plugged in 24/7/365? What do you recommend with this kind of 7-stage charger?
If helpful, here is some background to my issues: My wife and I are relatively new to the trailering world, and our TM 2720 has been more fun than we could have imagined. We take it out an average of one to two times a month, but have yet to dry camp. My wife is not as adventurous as me, so I don't think we will be dry camping more than once or twice a year. I have a dual fuel 3800v generator to run the A/C, charge the batteries, ... on those rare occasions when we do dry camp (such as next month during our solar eclipse trip for 3 days). When not in use, we store the TM in our garage. Our house is on solar, so I'm not worried about leaving the trailer plugged in, if advised. My twin 12v deep cycle marine batteries (only 80 amp/hr) are connected in parallel. I have a battery cutoff switch (between the battery and converter, only).
Thank you for your advice and support.
