dry camping/boondocking question
Every year I go to a music festival where we boondock from Thursday morning until we pack up Monday. I always had my pop-up and never had an issue. Fridge ran off propane and there wasn't many lights. We would run the generator a little during the day to top off the battery and run some fans outdoors and music.
Now I have this 28' bunk house and I am afraid it's gonna drain the battery pretty quickly. The fridge requires electricity to work off propane (or so I am told) unlike the pop up. The awning needs power to open and close (will close when leaving or if storm is coming). Water pump is much larger. I would pressurize the system on the PUP then turn it off so keep some juice.
I am not sure what else is going to suck the power when the battery is connected. Radio seems to always be on and connects to my phone even when off and in my driveway.
I did pick up some LED lamps to replace all the incandescent ones which will help tremendously.
Will running the generator for a couple hours a day be enough to keep it charged? Whats the longest people can go with a single battery and larger trailer if they are trying to conserve?
