Battery disconnect switch on Raptor 27FS

Is there a battery disconnect switch on the Raptor 27FS? Basically when my trailer is in storage or anywhere not plugged in, my batteries hardly ever hold a charge at all. There's a light on the control panel for the fuel gauge that stays lit all the time, and the rv propane panel (alarm?) is wired thus illuminating a green light constantly... obviously these things alone will drain the batteries. Tried calling Keystone but they were already closed and my dealer seems to be rather clueless about these new Raptor travel trailers and they don't have one in stock.

I have always thought that the battery shut off on my Fuzion was in a very inconvenient place so maybe this will help. It's a one inch chrome plated knob located on the wall next to my control panel about 12 inches off the floor.

Are you talking about something the factory installed or is this chrome plated knob something that you installed?

It came from the factory that way.

I'm guessing they come standard on most 5th wheel trailers - they seemed to easily be able to tell me where it was at on the Raptor 5th wheels. I guess my 30k wasn't enough for a pretty simple feature. Ah well, I went and pulled the batteries today and I'll charge them in the garage over winter.

Thanks for the responses!

Battery disconnect

I have a 2011 Raptor 30FS and it has no disconnect. Until I install my own, I just slide out the battery tray and disconnect the negative lines when I'm not going to use the trailer for a while. Since they're connected to the terminals with wing nuts its a quick & simple operaton. Just the propane detector will kill the batteries in about a month.
