    Shore power without batteries installed?

    Christmas season greetings. We don't anticipate using our 29RS 5er until spring. I'm wondering if I can run shore power to the camper to support two 120V dehumidifiers after removing the 12V batteries (Lion UT 1300 Lithium) for storage in a heated shop? Anything I need to do with the converter or disconnected batter leads? Living in a fairly temperate climate, near Seattle WA, do I even need to remove the lithium's? Thanks very much. Rick

    You can turn off the circuit breaker for the converter/charger and you'll be fine removing the batteries for the winter removing the batteries.
