(Being in 'Store' prevents reading battery voltage... replaced one for a neighbor recently that was outputting well under 12v. Theirs was in an outside bay and easily accessible (non-Thor rig).)

The reason I don't like doing that myself is that I once had a converter that couldn't regulate voltage with bad battery. Opening the switch would be equal to an open circuit or a completely dead battery. It's possible newer converters may output correct voltage without a battery connected as a load, but I don't know that for sure. Electronics can be finicky.
