Any tips on how to keep the inside of the camper warmer and prolong the battery power?
Use a Catalytic heater and an external (extra) propane tank.Wave heaters are the best and the Buddy type second,in my opinion.Hunting time here is alot colder than the temps you posted..It has been getting in the teens where I hunt ..
I have a Wave 8 I used in my 30ft trailer but it is to big for my 9.6ft Lance truck camper,so I went with the little buddy as they were once called with just one element instead of two as is the Big Buddy..It put's out to much heat on low to be comfy..I should have got the Wave 3 instead.
I am plumed at the propane tanks to ad an external tank whether it is my extra 10 or 25 gallon tanks for long stay's in cold weather.The furnace fan kills batteries like know other appliance and the catalytic heaters are safe if used properly...
I have been using them winter camping for many years in all of the RV's I have had..
