wanted to find out what heaters you use when plugged in to a/c and when boondocking? the propane ones say you have to leave windows open.. how open and do they turn on/off.. What about those 12v lap blankets?
Whew, lotta questions. I'll try these...
I'd likely use a 1kw electric heater on shore, however, if it dips below freezing at night, my furnace and only my furnace is on at 55. My furnace heats the basement pipes.
No, I don't leave any windows open when running the furnace. However, my main furnace ducts are not in my bedroom. Only when it gets really cold will I need bedroom furnace heat, and definitely not with open windows. I don't have bottomless propane.
12v blankets of any kind are usually very ineffective. I've found a 120v mattress heater to work great, but you need 4 batteries and a good inverter.
