Not sure what you mean? If you're not using the fridge, then turn it off. If you are boondocking, then generally use the propane. If you have full hookups, then dealer's choice; we use AC when we have a full hookup.

Unless your TV has an automatic disconnect, then, for sure, you should unplug the 7-pin to prevent the TT from draining your TV battery.

Parking our Pod while connected to the tow vehicle is draining the battery on our truck. We have nothing on or running in the trailer? Should we disconnect the trailer brake cable?
