If you store your TM at home, you can either (1) disconnect the battery leads from the trailer and connect a trickle charger directly to them, or (2) connect an extension cord to the TM power cord before you close it and keep the trailer plugged in all winter. Be sure to check the water every two weeks, at first. You'll soon learn how fast the water is "boiling" away and when you have to add more.

Paul didn't notice that Kiwi-Al has a
2006 model-- he's got the WFCO panel, which automatically switches 14.4V - 13.6V - 13.2V. It
*is* a trickle charger: unless you want to do some fancy anti-sulfination cycles, all you need to do is plug it into an outlet and leave it. (or, plug it overnight every couple of weeks).
