Okay folks, I need an education in batteries for an rv. I came here because y'all are so helpful. A quick search in the library didn't really answer my questions though I might not have looked in all the right places.
Here's the deal. We have a megatron marine rv deep cycle battery. I'm sorry but that is really all I know about the battery. I can tell you what it looks like and that the top of it has these little things that look like they could pop off if I tried hard enough though I didn't try because I didn't want to break something. My concern is that we may need to add water to it. I don't know how to tell if we do or not. Hubby isn't sure either. How do I know how to care for this battery. Can anyone point me to a website or somewhere that might can tell me how to take care of it?
Also, the trailer has been plugged in for several days and I'm wondering if this is harmful to the battery to always be charging like that. I want to have the trailer plugged in because I have stuff in the fridge and we are taking it out again in a few days. Suggestions on what to do with the battery while trailer is plugged in to the house would be great. Sorry for these questions that are probably very basic. We are beginners and learning something new all the time. Thanks!!
