Hi Jack,
I have a '66 Safari that I am in the middle of restoring, but I also 
have a 31' Jayco 5th wheel. I had just replaced the battery in the 
5th wheel with a new deep cell battery and parked it with a for sale 
sign on it. The only thing running was the propane detector. I went to 
show the rig to someone and the battery had gone dead within 4 weeks. 
So in my rig the propane detector seems to draw quite a bit of juice.
I spoke with a local rv dealership to ask if this was normal and he 
said that I had the standard detector that most of the rv's use and it 
will drain a fully charged battery within a month or so. I then 
styarted pulling the in-line fuse at the battery for extended periods 
of storage.
