We are creature comfort campers. We usually have electric hookup. If no electricity (and don't scold me to much) We use our honda eu3000 to keep the batteries up and to run the AC. When I change the batteries on my pickup I may go 2 agm batteries as big as I can fit. Then I may let them draw down in the summer. It doesn't take near as much power to start a diesel in the summer. I also have plenty of room for a extra battery or two where the on board propane generator use to be. So do you all think that is a crazy idea!?
I do keep a good jump starter with me when traveling.
Our travels are not to extremely remote areas by any means as of now. But when more time becomes available, I may put on my big boy pants and go on some more adventurous trips. You folks that do make me jealous!
I am with everybody else as far as not dealing with the propane fridges. They are just to much of a hassle for me. With the leveling and all the other issues, like not keeping up in temps over 90 very well. For now I fill a third of the fridge with frozen freezer packs so it will keep up in the heat!
I know many are happy with propane and more power to them. But not me. I have all ready installed a inverter and residential fridge in the 5th wheel.
Okay sorry I got on a rant:(
Thanks for all the replies!
