When we head south in Nov. we usually have a couple of nights with the furnace running. We use lights and the pump also. Haven't had any problems. I do leave the truck running while putting slides out and in just to play it safe. I also have 2 batteries but they are not in parallel. I have a marine switch which I use to alternate batteries.
Bill,
You will get a lot better service out of your batteries if you do connect them in parallel instead of alternating batteries. You'll have more immediate storage and amperage available. It's more than just having 12 volts. You need the amperage also.
