I read on another Forum where a chap leaves his van on permanent hook up when parked up say perhaps through winter. It was because he reckons the fridges in these MHs of ours don't like being switched on and off.
It just doesn't seem right to me. But what do I know ?
When everything is off there is less risk of say an electrical fire ? OK the 12V is still live but all the bigger boxes are off ?
How water proof would the blue plug on the outside of the van be over longer periods ?
My plan is to hook up every couple of weeks just to keep the batteries topped up and leave the fridge turned off with the door open .
Opinions ?
