Not EVERYONE keeps an inverter turned on 24/7 like YOU might..

No, they don't.

CONSERVATION is “key” to boondocking, it is far cheaper to CONSERVE energy when off the grid..

I don't conserve water either. I invest time and energy into getting more.

The more you waste means you have to have more battery and more battery means it takes longer to recharge, YOU must have more money to “burn” than me.

I do. Everyone has his or her level of comfort. When boondocking, I want to be as comfortable as I am on hookups. To me, it's not a test of endurance or how much money I can 'save'. I didn't invest thousands in solar, batteries and generators to see how little I could use them.

I don't BOTHER "boondocking", I do OVERNIGHT though.

I don't bother with "boondocking" because my "comfort" is far more important than trying to hyper mile my setup or go out of my way into the far backwoods. I pretty much have no choice but to book places with power..

Not because of my home fridge but because of my allergies and other health issues which pretty much requires the exclusive usage of airconditioning during the summer..

I can sometimes getaway with stopping overnight without A/C in the summer depending on how hot is was during the day.. Often I will just run the gen and A/C when I stop for a half hr which gets the inside temps down to a manageable 80 degrees..

For me sleeping with windows open will result in a trip to my doctors office and then to the pharmacy.. Done that a few times on several trips, don't like it..

It would cost me way too much to run a generator all night and all day just to keep my trailer at reasonable temps and humidity.. FAR, FAR cheaper to pay a little more for a campground WITH commercial power.
