My household a/c is down and I'm wondering if I can just sleep in my camper. We're in a heat wave here in Maryland.
Most (almost all) 13,500 BTU a/c's will run off a 15 amp circuit, but that's all........make sure you don't use anything else in the TT. Use at least a 10 gauge ext cord if you have to but better yet, use a 30 to 15 amp adapter and plug the TT cord directly into the outlet.
No harm in trying to see if the circuit will support the ac.
