Have you thought about a perminately mounted battery maintainer under the hood?

With the 120 cord sticking out of the grill, plugged into an extension cord while setup.

We have one similar to this.

This sounds like a great plan, but is the trickle charger referred to adequate to charge the substantial sized chassis battery? I’m going to charge the current 3.5 year old battery (current 3.4V), but if this doesn’t help, might insert an AGM battery along with the trickle charger. Guess you could also use the generator to charge the chassis battery while boondocking. We are new to RV, so all input is appreciated.
