Profdant39 - We were connected to shore power at a State Park in Richmond. The air conditioner was the first thing that was running. We used the microwave a few times. A small fan was plugged in to help circulate the air in a back room. A small 4 cup coffee pot was plugged in for a few minutes in the mornings to brew coffee then unplugged. (The microwave was not used during the coffee brewing times.) The only other things I could think were running was the fan in the bathroom and maybe a few lights.
I wouldn't think that these were unusual items that would over load the circuit except perhaps the AC and microwave at the same time. Am I wrong?
Haven't spoken to the dealer yet. After we saw this we shut all breakers off, unplugged, packed up, and left the park early. We were once very happy travel trailer owners. Now we kind of feel like we have a hunk of junk.
