I'm pretty sure it is something that Thor adds. If it were a "feature" of the E350/450 platform we'd have heard about it.

Thanks Randy, I recall reading the many reports on dead batteries. Another reason I'd want separate/segregated electrical systems if only they were available.
What I perhaps didn't read correctly about Jamie's point is that his small solar charger isn't working even though his battery is disconnected. I assumed (probably incorrectly) that he was talking about the chassis battery, and after it had been disconnected (by terminal or knife switch???). Looking back he may have been referring to house battery.
