Boondocking 12v cut off

When boondocking do you have a switch to shut off the concerton and any other 12v items to help save the batteries?

There isnt a switch for certain items, but there are fuses. You can pull the fuse for the RADIO from the panel.
The only other item is the propane sniffer. ITs fuse is located up front near the battery. Mine is a 3AMP in a blue holder.
Of course, if you have a propane leak, you will never know it.

Solar panel for the batteries like a few on here use seems to do the trick also.
I think Scottz and a few others have them installed.

I don't think the Concertone uses enough power to worry about. You certainly do not want to turn off your detectors. I have a solar system (photos in signature) that keeps my batteries charged.
