It looks 4 hrs (which may be enough for a lot of owners) is about the most the E-Trek will run the A/C without fast idiling the engine, and using the added engine gen. to charge the batteries, and run the A/C. There still are some questions about idiling the engine, but looks like it is OK with MB, as long as Rt's recommendations are followed.
Where did you find info on it being OK with MB? Everything I have seen from MB says one hour or so before driving it quite a bit to clean the DPF and EGR systems. Roadtrek now is saying you need to charge longer than the original 40 minutes and that you need to run the van to have air conditioning, which would imply continuous running, I think.
