Looking for suggestions...
A couple ideas that come to mind, but just not sure if they are needed/worthwhile...
- Power a circulating fan. This would move air around in the RV to hopefully keep things fresh and dry. Not sure it is needed though (I haven't had any problems with smells, mold).
- Power a humidifier. This might help to keep moisture down inside the RV. I haven't had a problem with this, but seems like it couldn't hurt.
- Power a couple Ultrasonic pest (mice/rat/squirrel) plug-in repellents. I haven't had an issue with mice/rats/squirrel, but prevention is always a good idea. I did have one mouse about 3 years ago. Thankfully, there are a few outdoor cats near where I store my RVs.
Any suggestions on how you would use ~150-250w of power for 8-10hrs per day so it's not just "wasted"? Thought some of you might have some creative ideas.
Thanks!

Hi Chris,
The circulating fan would equalize temperatures inside the RV. I think that might be of use.
I'm sure you meant a dehumidifier not a humidifier. Unfortunately dehumidifiers that actually work generally draw 1200 to 1500 watts. More than you have "spare".
The ultrasonic pest units draw milliamps. Less than you have "spare". It may also be the reason they are not effective.
