Hot water heater freeze.
We put a cold weather test on the new rig last month. 3 nights in a row with temperatures in single digits. First 2 mornings we found no hot water and no water in the bathroom. Cold water available...

Also in the works is an upgrade to the dual propane/electric option. The Hottrod Electric Conversion came to my attention. Looks good when boondocking with the generator running.
I'm not following your logic on that. I can't imagine you will run the generator enough when boondocking to have much impact on propane use. We boondock, mostly. And we have the electric/propane WH model. I have the electric side locked/pinned in the off position. I'll never need it, not even on shore power.
Thanks! I’ll scratch that one off the list...
On second thought, I’m looking to augment the propane, not replace it. While running the genset 4-5 hours a day the water heater would be heated. In spite of altitude or igniter problems, and provide a back up heat source. Propane the rest of the time. It’ll take fuel, gasoline or propane, to provide the heat. Pick a tank.
Keep in mind, we boondock high and cold and I like options ;)
