2 battery switches?

[Harleykids]

I just noticed when we got home with our new Fuzion 403 that there is a battery switch inside the battery compartment and a battery disconnect in the panel on the opposite side control center.
The switch in the battery compartment does not seem to turn off the batteries. what is it for?

The switch in the battery compartment is the remote switch for the inverter.

Love it when the answer is given, even when it is by the promoter of the question

The switch at the battery isolates so that it can't discharged by loads in the trailer that don't have switches to turn them off. The key device is the gas detector. It goes all the time when the battery is connected and can kill the battery in 3 or 4 days. If you have shore power connected, the battery should be connected to the converter, so that it can charge the battery.

Your mention of a second battery switch has me a little confused. There shouldn't be one in the converter panel. I think that you are talking about the shore power AC supply breaker. Turning it off will not turn off the battery. It only turns off your AC loads and the converter.

When I store the trailer for any length of time, I always disconnect the battery.
