We have not had any issues with our customers and the TireMinder i10 TPMS for RVs and Trailers w/ Signal Booster # TM56FR draining trailer batteries but a great idea is to run a length of 10 gauge wire like part # 10-1-1 from the 12 volt accessory pin of your 7-way (1:00 position) to the positive battery post and it'll be topped off from our tow vehicle as you are driving.
