What did you do to your Class C MH today???
This is always a fun thread to watch in other forums, so I thought I'd start one here.

Killed my "Kill-A-Watt" Meter today.....
:(
*I was going thru a list I made of all the 120 volt items I have in the MH and was testing different combinations of items, to get a good idea of "do's and dont's" for when camping w/o any hook-ups.
Running the Heat function of the rooftop air and the water tank heater element, along with my boy playing video games= oops!!!
(by the time I walked back into the garage to check the total wattage and amperage on the meter...I heard it beeping and then...nothing..blank screen/done/dead/power lost to MH power cord)
**Time to pull apart the "kill-A-Watt" and see if its repairable.
-I am amused that the Coleman Rooftop 13,500 a/c on high draws only 1580 watts/13.45 amps. The heat function of the unit draws 1820 watts/15.30 amps.(It does quite well at warming the MH up though, so I won't complain too much)
