I lose about 1V over 2 weeks on both house and the engine battery (but not the thruster battery) when my boat is on a trailer, with rotary switches for the 2 house, 1 engine, and 1 thruster battery turned off. Does anyone have insight to a possible cause? The bilge pumps are direct wired to the thruster battery per the wiring diagram so that can’t be the cause. I suspect the monoxide detector is direct wired to the house battery but I can’t imagine it can draw the batteries down this rapidly. During storage the solar panel should trickle charge but this draw happens in spite of the solar panel (note that it’s often cloudy and the solar panel can’t provide much charge). With the rotary switches off, what could be causing this?
