    Chasing Down A Parasitic Draw From Your Battery(s).

    I just saw this video over on another RV forum web site and thought it was really useful; at least from the 5 minute mark to about the end near the 10 minute mark.

    I know we get folks here all the time who don't understand why their batteries go dead or why even with the disconnect switch activated the battery still goes dead. It seems to me this would be a good way to determine where the draw is coming from.

    Actually that's a pretty good video on tracing draws. One of the things I keep handy also is an clamp-on amp meter, along with the VOM. You can get a decent clamp-on amp meter for around $30,
