Just to be different, we use a 40 watt lamp with a tin can opened at both ends as a chimney above the lamp. The tin can chimney sits on three pieces of wire screwed into the the wooden base that the lamp socket is screwed into. The chimney causes a flow of heated air to circulate. All cupboard doors and drawers are left open, but the van is closed up. The 40 Watt lamp is plugged into a timer which comes on at night and shuts off at daylight.
There is never any mould on the inside, just on the outside of the RV. This method has been successful for us since 1996 and the cost is negligible. With the coming ban on incandescent lamps, I purchased 16 the other day, so we should be ok for about 32 more years. By that time we should be in a retirement home or pushing up the daisies.
