All breakers off, ceiling lights still on?

Baffled... How do the lights work when all breakers are off? Do the run off the chassis battery?

Also, is it ok to keep all the breakers off, while in storage? It is plugged in to 110. I'm just concerned that by shutting all the breakers, I'm also cutting off the charge from 110.

Thanks in advance

Must be lights are 12v. and yes, if you turn off all breakers while in storage, your batteries will go dead. You need to keep the inverter breaker on, on most rigs, that's what charges your batteries. Your's is new, I'd call the factory or dealer for most questions. And if you even think something isn't right, take it back and have 'em fix it under warranty. Don't wait.

I don’t think that the 12v lights are on any breaker. Your 12v lights will be on a fuse, most likely a resettable one.

With regards to battery charging the only way to know is to look at the inverter panel after all the breakers are off and see if it is illuminated and showing some sort of charge (Bulk, Absorb, or float).

Opps, my bad, forgot you have the Anthem now. Check on the Vegatouch to see if there is a charge going to the batteries from the inverters and or put a volt meter on the batteries themselves.

Your ceiling lights are on the 12 volt side . Breakers are on 110/220 side.
No need to turn breakers off while stored .
