heating electrically a "back yard" report
Hi, This is a test of a cold soaked RV, ambient temperature -31 C (-23.8 f) The test started at 2:00 but I had difficulty getting the cords "run". I'm plugged into one 30 amp and two 15 amp outlets...

'cause I was curious, I did some math. Basic rate for electricity is apparently 11.13 cents per KWH where you are, you used roughly 70 Kw in 9 hours, for about $8. The 24 hour equivalent would be about $21. If you did that for a month that would be $640. 5 heating months, $3200.
I was curious because I will be heating my shop with a 5500 watt electric heater this winter, this gives me a guideline to what I'll be spending each day that I turn the heat on. Sure hope it warms up where you are, or you don't need to live in your camper full time!
