[JAG7001]

morning, i will be parking at the airport for almost 3 x weeks, im assuming if i have fridge off on control panel, there will be no other drain?

or do i need to turn the main trip off as well

i dont have solar as yet?

dont want to come home to a flat battery.

thanks all

I was parked up at Gatwick for best part of three weeks recently, fridge off of course, only drain was Vodafone alarm/ immobiliser / tracker. It was brass monkey weather yet the van started first time.
On that basis I’d suggest you would be fine.

Probably depends on the health of your battery. If you think its not in tip top condition, maybe consider disconnecting or get a jumper pack for emergency use. I have found the latter has got me out of a couple of sticky situations and its well worth packing, for just-in-case use.

? What do you mean by " Main Trip ".

The fridge doesn't run off the engine battery anyway so makes no difference wether that's on or not. If your engine battery is good it should be fine.

Be fine. We just did 3 weeks in Argentina and no issues, covered car park so no ability for solar to kick in anyway.

Common misconception. That trip switch only isolates EHU. Has no effect on the internal electrical system.
