Yes, keep that battery charged.
I installed a blue tooth device to monitor.
A wimpy charge line that is long and thin can drop the voltage too low to actually overcome the internal resistance of the toad battery, and thus not charge it properly.
I po-pooed a DC to DC charger until finally giving it a real thought and test. It doesn't need to be a monster.
On my last toad, a 2012 Edge Limited, keeping the battery charged was nearly impossible. I finally added a simple heavy duty two wire system. Much like you used to see on tow trucks.
