Domestic electric water heaters
Your typical gas or gas/electrical RV water heater seems to be the source of a lot of "heartburn" for many people ! Seeing as most people do NOT boondock (or only occasionally) has anyone considered ...

30+ years ago, my good friend who had a 75 Nomad - parked in the desert (never to be moved again) had his water heater die.
We plumbed in a 10 gallon under the sink, 110volt water heater and it worked for years. Eventually we repaired the existing water heater control valve and when we plumbed it back in, we had the tap water going to the propane water heater, then into the electric unit.
That way, if we needed additional hot water, we had 20 gallons at our disposal.
Now the thing you have to remember is the Trailer was never going to move - and was connected to 120v all the time.
YMMV
