I will tell what I am doing.

I am not 100% confident that the converter in our new motorhome is a good one to leave connected all the time. I have not had the time to do enough research.

However since I have heard enough bad reports on the current stock batteries, I will soon replace them anyway with maintenance free AGM batteries.

Considering all that, I'm leaving the motorhome plugged in as you describe.
