One of the most common issues that arise with RVs is battery discharge. Every model of RV is different, depending on the make, model, and age of the vehicle and its electrical system. The battery of an RV is designed to be recharged regularly, such as when you are plugged into the mains at an RV camp. However, some RVs with older batteries do not like to be left plugged in for a long time. Newer batteries sometimes have capacity problems where over time their full charge capacity diminishes. Another potential problem is that newer batteries like to be topped up regularly instead of allowed to drain.
When an RV is not being used for long periods of time, such as over winter, the battery still needs to be recharged. If you keep your RV at home, you could start the engine every few weeks to make sure that the battery receives the juice it needs. Some people remove their batteries entirely to preserve their health. However, not everyone stores their RV at home, and not everyone can or will maintain their batteries diligently when their RV is not being used. A Trik L Start is a product designed to actually maintain the battery recharging system to keep the battery healthy and charged during times when the RV is not being used. It is a good idea to use a Trik L Start even when you are not sure if you are going to be taking out the RV again, because sometimes people think they are going to take another trip, don’t take any action on the battery, and then forget about it and realize later on that the battery has been discharged.
Whatever the cause, battery drainage can happen any time, anywhere. All experienced RVers know the importance of battery maintenance kits like a Trik L Start, just as no RVer would ever drive around without a spare tire or extra bottles of water. A Trik L Start does not take up a lot of space, and keeps a low profile in your garage or RV but is always there when you need it.
