OK Here's our issue.
We have 22 foot TT, 2 grp 27 batteries. We dry camp in semi wilderness areas
At home these batteries will take a tad over 13v,on generator and TT charger only 12.7ish
I have taken every power consumer out of the system (switch for radio), disconnect co2 detector.
Even without the furnace running, lights for as little as an hour, and fridge off we still awake to as 1/3 battery.
We are so paranoid of losing power we use a lantern in the evenings for cards etc and only use lights when gennie is running for a short time to read in bed.
So, what are possible causes of the power drain? How important is that batteries match exactly in CCA and age? One of mine is 600 one 625 CCA, one a year old one two years old. Both were on desulfating cycles over the winter and summer with a CTEK 7002 charger.
Ideas???????
