Dual pane windows.....add weight? Reduced CCC?
How much weight do dual pane windows add to a 5er over single pane? Seems to me that if they add quite a bit of weight that reduces your CCC.

It is not the energy saving that make dual pane windows valuable, it is the noise abatement and the absence of condensation on the inside of the windows. Single pane windows condensate badly in cool weather and one is always moping up the water and it could cause mold.
I agree and that is exactly why I'm not a fan of dual panes.
I'm not looking for noise abatement. The CG's I camp at are quiet enough for the most part. I don't have a condensation issue with my single panes. Add in there is no energy savings. What's the point?
To limit condensation and noise? Really!? Not for me.
I will add if I full timed I might give them more consideration because I may encounter more extreme temps. vs. the moderate temps. I experience now.
I also understand all rigs are not the same in terms of overall insulation. Climate also play and important factor as well.If I were in extreme Texas heat or extreme Canadian cold I may see things differently
Nevertheless I see minimal benefit for the cost as it pertains to my run of the millcamping style.
