I always carry an extra 20#er. But then I don't always have shorepower either. So I have two batteries as well.
Well, that was with the pop up. Now I have the MH, but still carry an extra 20 propane, and added a battery to it as well. Even though it has a generator.
Do spend time getting aware of what you NEED. You may not need to worry about the battery IF you Always camp with amenities. Here in Colorado there are a lot of places to camp that do not even have water from a hose. lol
If you have shorepower. Will you cook with propane of an electric hotplate? So maybe you don't even need propane? A ceramic heater is just fine for 'warmer' climates.
If you do carry propane. Be aware that some propane dealers charge you for a full tank no matter how little you have used. Some like to gouge you at every turn. That's why I always carry an extra tank. It stays full until the other is empty. Up here I've been in the Flattops on the 4th of July, and had it rain, snow, sleet, and oh yes the wind was blowing too. My neighbors used over 100#s of prop. in a week to heat their 5th wheel, so I learned to carry spares.
