Going to go on the trip - and if the thing doesn't work will get a $29 hotel for showers (we're boon-docking so it's less than a hook-up anyway).
Heating water on the gas stove and sponge bathing sounds a lot easier to me. :W
When this is all over I'm going to replace the unit with a gas/electric unit - which is what I should have had in the first place.
Any travel trailer we've owned has had a water heater with the 120 vac electric heating element which we do find noticeably improves recovering time but I've never thought about it as an advantage if the gas side of it didn't work. That said, if you boondock a lot then the electric heating option won't do you any good anyway unless you also drag along a genset to power it. ;)
