We have a Pinnacle 40 foot 5th wheel, 2013. On our previous MH there was a trickle solar charger to keep the batteries topped up while not in use. As we head south, usually, before the really bitter cold hits Ontario we were never too concerned about the batteries because of this trickle charger. The 5th wheel doesn't have one. We have 2 house batteries for the rig. There is an on/off switch for them. Our RV dealer told us that if we shut the batteries off they will not freeze, that they will only freeze if they are in the 'ON' position. As we are heading south a little later this year I am a wee bit concerned. Is that statement correct? What the heck is the difference between have the switch ON or OFF??
Thanks for any input.
