I agree with mockturtle about turning gas heater off at night. If I am dry camping then the water heater is turned on in the morning for dish washing and showers, then it is turned off. The water stays warm all day long.
Do you turn your water heater "off" in your house as well? Same logic applies, except it has a much bigger tank, and will stay warm even longer.
Besides, warm isn't hot.
At home there isn't a bunk bed 6" above the water heater and that water heater wasn't made to RV industry "standards". I turn mine off at night because the thought of harming my kid because I was too selfish to wait a few minutes for hot water would be enough to drive me to suicide.
