6 gal electric hot water heater upgrade
Have a 18 ft Jayco and hot water heater went out. Wanting to see if anyone has ever replaced the original with a smaller electric one. Don’t really like the use of propane for anything inside.

I put a Rheem 10 gal. water heater in a cargo trailer conversion. Pretty sure it was on a 20A breaker and it never flipped.
The Rheem 20 gallon fit in a 24x24x36 space. It is rated for 2000W so you need to make sure if you plan on using a generator it will do 2000W continuously. I could not find an advertised recovery time for either the 10 or 20 gallon unit.
