Hi Friends,
Well,we just got ourselves a nice used 5th wheel Arctic Fox M27-5L Length 27'. I am considering about having a generator installed or perhaps Solar panels might be a more practical addition. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
Kind regards
Carl
Carl, you really need to decide on what kind of camping you like to do. If you're die-hard boondockers, then spend the money for a good solar system, battery bank and inverter. If you're balanced between 'docking and full hook up camping, then a smaller solar system and a small generator might be a better choice. Remember, that most improved campgrounds without hookups (state and national parks), will have specified run times for generators, so if you're wanting to run the A/C, you might not be able to do so. If you have the money to spend, a good solar =and= a generator sized to run your A/C would be the ideal way to go, so all bases are covered. :-)
