Bought my used Alpenlite 2 years ago and the only `new`technology it had was electric jacks. Since then I have changed the converter to a newer charge -sensing unit, added a 12v tv-dvd, 100 watt solar cell (also on a charge sensing system), several 12 v outlets, a newer stereo with USB connection, and a catalytic furnace that uses no battery power. Off the grid designs for sure. The funny thing is that 30 years ago,I was always off the grid and did not need anything more than a single 12 v battery as that camper did not have the power draw requirements that my`new`Alpenlite does.
All of my new power requirements are all things I did not have or need 30 years ago. I think it is much less about computer controlled power systems and much about what we think we `need` when traveling these days............;)
