Kilowatt usage
Can someone tell me what is the max possible kilowatt usage having 30 amp service? If i figured correctly, it is 86 kw/ day. That sounds like a lot to me.

Hi Steve,
RV's don't have much in the way of insulation in them. They tend to also be full of holes. Window area per square foot is much higher in an RV than in a home.
I'm currently drawing about 2950 watts from two 15 amp circuits.
One is running a fan heater Voltage is 105. Watts are about 1613. I have a 50 foot #12 cord, on that circuit.
One is running 1337 watts on two oil filled heaters and the converter. I have a 25 foot #12, on that circuit. I don't monitor the voltage on that circuit. The heaters in the bedroom are cycling.
Temperature outside is -9.6 c (14.7 f) Inside it is 21 c (70 f).
I will "loose the battle" in the front of the RV as I'm expecting -14 C tonight.
The bedroom, which has a sliding fabric door will stay pleasantly warm.
I'll cook tonight using my inverter--and then overnight the converter can recharge the bank for me.
