battery meter shows 11.7v. turns out i did have to top off the water level in both batteries. i left the camper plugged in to keep the batteries charging. in the breaker box i only had the center main breaker ON and the one labeled CONV on. all others are off. fridge is (purposely) off. battery disconnects are not disconnected. i'm continuing to watch the issues. did get a reply to this thread that it is understandable my batteries would be dead after only 9 days in storage because of parasitic drain. is this common? or only that one person experiences dead batteries so quickly.
