It depends. Lots of people like to go for "full hookups" while camping, meaning the RV's water system is linked to a land-based system. And some of the parks I've been in had way higher pressure tha

What about hooking up the charger, then giving the battery just a brief shot of 12v from the cables? Seems like that should get your charger going. I saw my Dad do this many times to his 30 Packard.
