But the way to tell what is drawing the most is to remove the fuses one at a time and see if the drain disappears. Once you find the circuit that is causing the problem you need to figure out what on that leg is bad by leaving the fuse in and disconnecting each item on that leg one at a time and look at the meter to see if it goes away.
With cars I have seen shorted bulbs drain batteries in a couple hours.

I appreciate it Travis, I'll do the draw test first thing before loading for the trip this weekend and see what I get. The rest I can work some during the trip when I need a break from the excitement!
