Which illustrates my point exactly - how many of "you" are out there full timing on dry sites compared to those of us who use our campers for recreational transient camping, also most of whom would choose to pay a few more $ per night to camp on an electric site when there's the choice? 1%, 2%, 5% ??? - regardless of the actual number a very tiny percentage of the total number of recreational vehicle owners. This same issue repeats itself ad nauseam here on the forums constantly - advice from the very few to go whole hog on whatever the subject may be (in this case solar vs generator) when in fact for the vast majority of users a much less costly approach (such as an additional battery, perhaps augmented with a portable 100 watt solar panel) would serve the purpose just fine.
Tiresome. :R
