Extension Cord
We have found ourselves in a spot where we are going to have to live in our camper for a bit and need to purchase an extension cord that will reach the closest power. I am looking at a heavy duty 100...

So all we will be running is Fridge on propane, Furnace, TV, Bathroom fan as needed, Water pump, and charging phones as needed. Not using a lot of power. Stove we will use, but that is propane. Microwave may or may not be used, but if it does it will only be if necessary. Wife does not like microwaves very much. WE have plenty of water, spigot within 10 feet. Sewer we will have to pull out and dump, but we will have an indoor bathroom for our use.
