Winter storage

[Richard Hayden]

When we used to store our coach where there was no electricity and we weren't
going to be using it I would take the batteries out and take them home to the
garage where it was above freezing and I could keep them charged.

Does the coach have a battery master shut off? If so, you could cut it off and
every week or so start the genset for a while to charge, then turn the master
off. If you used the coach in winter, the engine temps will be lower. I like
winter in our coach down South.

Winter will be here before we want it so I'm looking for some
assistance. We have our bird under covered storage at an RV storage
facility but there is no electric hookup. I was wondering if someone
could give me suggestions as to how I could keep my batteries in
condition during the winter months. I thought about a solar maintainer
but don't know what I need? Any suggestions as to what system I should
use? I was thinking I would put it on the generator; my thought is if
I kept the generator battery maintained I could start the generator
then start the CAT after a warm up with the block heaters and juice to
the start up batteries. Any thoughts or suggestions?
