Reply to comment by Uncanevale in Safe to charge 12v battery that is also running a fan 24/7? by seasonedfries

And that's exactly what I'm trying to avoid... Damaging the battery

Consider an RV converter as a charger, or run directly from a converter with no battery or the battery switched off.

That was a thought as well, plug a small converter into an extension cord and run the fans off it. The trailer is used for storage/workshop (in a limited capacity) and for moves. Only time I'd really NEED to run the fans is once it's parked for an extended period of time. Would look into wiring to a switch and to the battery later down the road. Would just need to figure out how to stop power from going from converter to battery, just in case it gets parked and someone bumps the switch... But that can be dealt with later
