I have been messing with the electrical system amp draws since I bought this thing. I bought a volt/amp meter and hooked it to the house batteries to figure things out. Also installed a knife style disconnect, and I advise everyone to do so after what I have discovered so far. If you dry camp often you should also rewire the power wire to the radio so you can have a switch to cut power to it. That radio turned off draws about .30 amp, when turned on the radio draws almost 1 amp. When my "Store " button is engaged there is still a .75 amp draw from the coach battery, this is why I say put on a disconnect.
If you dry camp there are many things to do to fix the draws. My rig will draw 2.5 amps extra unless I disconnect the chassis battery wire that goes to the control box. I have yet to figure what that is all about. The power to the slide takes .10 amp, so I pull that fuse when I arrive. The CO detector takes .05 amp so I pull that also, don't need it if the engine is not running. the fridge takes about .60 amp, but I need it. I kind of think the solenoid for the emergency start is wired wrong but still have to do some talking to others to find out. I will put it all out in another post
