IMO it's sort of silly to outfit truck campers with these forced air furnaces, especially on units like yours where a genset isn't even an manufacturer option.
So, what kind of heat should they have? Force air works fine without hookups.
Of course, most of us have done a few things to lower the usage like add reflectix and keep the temperature a bit lower. See the Winterizing threads for more examples.
Not on my camper. It has room for 2 group 24 batteries from Arctic Fox. Without using a generator or having hook ups batteries are useless after 2 nights of cold camping using the furnace. Truck running doesn't fully charge batteries. What is the solution from Lance to run microwaves and furnaces without generator or hook-ups?
In this case the camper comes stock with one battery, no generator option from Lance. Not sure how you keep the heat going without more battery and a way to recharge them.
