Battery Off/On Switch

Here's something I've wondered about but never got around to asking: our rig has a battery on and off switch. Should it be left on while camping and plugged in or not?

Yes. What it really is is a battery disconnect switch. When the batteries are disconnected, many things won't work in your rig and your batteries won't be recharged by the convertor.
