Ya know what ... you'll be good with what people are saying here.
1. Use the furnace as little as possible ... more like not at all if you can get away with it.
2. Bring (borrow?) sleeping bags, extra blankets, wear socks at night, etc to keep warm.
3. Don't use the incandescent lights unless you really,really have to and turn them off as soon as you can.
4. You need to save your RV battery for the fridge, water pump and water heater.
5. Use a cooler instead of the fridge???
6. When dry camping make sure the fridge is switched to "Propane Only" and not "Auto". I was told that while in "Auto" it uses more power. I don't know but, hey, why not??
7. Leave the water heater OFF. Mine uses 12v power when turned ON.
8. Use the bathhouse as much as possible. The water pump takes LOTS of power when running.
Best of all ... HAVE FUN!!!
