I recommend the Redarc In-Vehicle BCDC 40 Amp Battery Charger item # 331-BCDC1240D. This will maintain the charge on your trailer's battery. This charger connects directly to your battery, rather than pulling power from your vehicle via the trailer connector. This is to ensure that it's able to fully charge your auxiliary battery. A standard 7-way trailer connector is limited to 10 or 15 amps of current, which will not be able to fully restore a battery for use. But this charger can transfer up to 40 amps of current to both charge and maintain your auxiliary battery.
