That is not entirely true.......

I had a '18 Class Outlaw and now have a '2- Super C Magnitude. The leveler motor was powered from the house batteries in both cases. There is a 100A breaker off the house batteies for the levelers that if tripped, will cause a low voltage error because the motor is not getting the required voltage. It was also clear the house batteries powered the motor by looking at the 12V schematics.

In both my Outlaw and Magnitude, the engine had to be running so the alternator provided enough of a voltage boost to the house batteries for the motor to work properly.
