110 shore power while stored

I keep my RV in enclosed storage. Any reason not to keep connected to 110 power while not being used?

if I had access to power, I would - no reason not to, other than dead batteries...

I keep the Vegas on our property under cover about 150’ from the house
We have power & water there
So ours is plugged-in 24/7 with the fridge always on
Since I have Lead Acid Batteries, I make it a habit to check the water regularly

If you've got power available: use it! ::

Yup, I keep mine plugged in. I leave the fridge running and it keeps my batteries charged.

Always plugged in.
If it were outside I'd set the ac to 80°.
I was in it today. Tpms says I have a tire 6lbs low and the ceiling fans have kept it from smelling like an rv. Fridge is cold... Grabbed soda.
Food is packed, water full, black and gray are empty, wireless is transmitting and panties are in the panty drawer.
We can bug out at the turn of a key.
There's more to being effective than just plugging it in.

Someone is sure to mention fire potential.
You'll figure the weight to put on that.
