Well I didn't know anything about these being referred to as boilers
and I didn't want to spend big bucks on replacing something based on
my uneducated assumptions. The batteries are from Sam club - who
have been gracious enough to replace them both times, including
yesterday.

It was never a matter of NOT replacing the chargers if I KNEW it was
them, but rather a search for how to PROVE it was them. It looks
like I was probaby correct in my assumptions and it's also good to
learn that these ole sweetie's just naturally lose battery power via
setting unlugged for extended time lengths and that there may be
nothing wrong with her once I'm past this hurdle.

I'll be looking into replacement charger options fairly soon and
will probably spam you again for more help when that day comes. As
it currently stands - I kind of don't get how one box can be two
chargers, have two plug in cords, tie in to the electrical in two
places. I guess I have some learning to do now that it's narrowed
down.

Devils advocate here.....

Lets say I hook up a NEW charger and the RV battery duo still has
the nagative posts cook and the volts meter still goes wiggly, and
it still acts like it's mad at me - where would the next stop be?
