You will probably get several fine replies on this issue from this astute user group . Here are my thoughts: I am not aware of any isolation diodes in the Trailmanor to cause a voltage drop. However, if while driving, you are running the refrigerator on 12VDC, the voltage drop in the wiring of the tow vehicle and the Trailmanor will prevent the battery from ever fully charging. In fact, several users have discovered their TM battery discharged upon arrival because of this voltage drop.
