Electric heaters
Does anyone know of a electric heater with more than 1500 watts?

Hi greenrvgreen,
If you are heating with propane, running an electric heater can significantly reduce use. The "only game in town" for winter camping where I live does not meter electrical use. So the more electric heat I use, the less I pay for propane. If I had to heat with propane I'd have to refill the fixed tank in my class C every 3 days, during the coldest part of the winter.
Tonight the low will be 2.8 C (37 F), and I'm parked beside a client. I can manage to keep warm on a single 15 amp circuit at those temperatures. If I had cheap heat--I'd not be able to run it at all.
As to "fail over" see my reply above.
