Class A plugged in cost
I currently have my motorhome in an indoor storage unit and I have a 50 amp outlet in the unit. So I have plugged the motorhome in and had left the refrigerator on. I have kept my motorhome at home in the past but never realized how much energy it used when plugged in since it was combined with everything else.
I just got my first electric bill that shows a full month and almost the only power used was the motorhome plugged with the refer running. And I just remembered I did spend one night in the motorhome and ran the AC's and electric water heater for just that one night.
Total bill for just electricity use was about $34. That is for 272 Kilowatt hours of electricity. I guess I was expecting a little cheaper than that. I think what ran the bill up was keeping the refer running. The storage unit is all metal with no insulation and it gets hot on the inside. So it probably took some extra energy for the refer to keep it cool on the inside with triple digit temps on the outside. I turned the refer off so I'll have to wait and see what the charge for next month comes in at.
