When we dry camp in cooler weather, the furnace fan is our biggest drain on the batteries.
Short of going without heat, how do you keep the furnace fan from depleting the batteries below 50 percent charge during the night.
Add more batteries if you can.
What I also have done (only when remote camping, never in a campground when other people are near me) is locked up my Honda EU2k to a tree, at the end of a 100' 12 AWG extension cord and run it all night with a space heater on the 600 watt setting.
The gen will run all night on a tank of gas.
I sleep better to because I don't get woke up by the noise of the furnace fan cycling all night.
