We have never in over 7 years and two Montana's touched the battery disconnect switch.
But in the 7 years and two Montana's has the rig ever been disconnected from shore power?
The only sure way to isolate the battery draw is to disconnect the battery from the circuit by either disconnecting it or installing a switch (at the battery itself) which in effect does the same thing. And I do not believe the fridge will work with the battery disconnect engaged, but as always I may be wrong. When I turn the fridge on the day before we depart (mini-storage routine), I always make sure the battery disconnect is disengaged (by turning on the light in the convenience center and making sure that it comes on).
Bingo
Actually the only time the Montana is NOT on shore power is when we are enroute from one location to another. They have never been stored.
