Batteries dying in New 2016 Forrest River Forester

Hello All

New to the forum but such a helpful site!

Just wondering if we are doing something wrong with the batteries. We have found that they don't last very long and trigger the alarm for low battery.

We will charge them up before leaving on a trip (attached to electrical at the house) then likely drive an full 8 - 10 hour day. Once we stop we may turn on lights for a short time, but are conscious of using any power. Don't use the microwave or what we think are power using things. We are always finding that the battery alarm will go off about 4 hours after we stop driving. The only thing that may be running seems to be the fridge although it is on gas but it seems it still takes some electrical. We turn off all the lights, no A/C or TV running.

Do we need to replace with better batteries or perhaps there is something wrong with the ones we have? The unit is only 6 months old. Sadly our dealer doesn't seem to have any answers for us.

Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Thanks
