Hi Steve,
I've owned several TT's in the past and fortunately know how to winterize. I've done it many times over already, just not in the past several years since it's been about 3 yrs since I've owned a camper.
I understand what you are saying, but the stretch we are going into (lows at or a little below freezing) is not expected to be that long in duration.
I think what I may do, is buy a heavy-duty timer and hook that up to a small ceramic heater and set that on Low temp inside the TT, that way I can set it to come on around 12am or so, when the temp really starts getting colder, then turn off around 10am or so the next day so I'm only heating it during the time when temps are at their coldest and the chance of freezing is at it's greatest.
At least I think that will get me through to this next camping trip and then after that, I'll winterize, just in case I don't make it out in November as I'd like to.
