I found that with the battery disconnect, some items are still drawing on the batteries. When I park it for a long period, I will disconnect the battery cables to eliminate the draw. We do not have the convenience of shore power. I forgot to disconnect them a month ago and noticed yesterday they were down to 1/3, so I disconnected them. Nothing worst then a dead or drained battery when you get ready to go. Also, I drilled a 1/8" hole on my landing gear square casing at 5" and 13". This enables me to occasionally spray some spray (Lithium) grease on the drive gear. This places grease at the upper and lower position of the gear, so the drive nut lubricates both top and bottom.
