Electrical question

I am looking at buying a 100% electric 26 foot camper. It has 50 amp power but most of the campgrounds I go to only offer 30amp. I know I can buy a adaptor to plug in to 30 amp but will I be limited on what I can run. Any help here will be great.

About 6 months ago I looked at some the new MHs. It is amazing how many are going all electric. Especially DPs. MW convection oven electric range, fridge etc. Seems even 50 amps wouldn't quite be enough. With both A/Cs running, water heater, coffee maker etc. we have to decide which one to use. We have an electrical system that decides for us that seems to work out. Guess RV parks will have to go to 100 amps and price will go way up.

I don't like the limitations of electric- I love my propane!

For use as an "RV" I don't think I'd ever consider a 100% electric.
I'm an expert in only one field....I believe it's somewhere in Kansas.

It doesn't have a oven. It has electric water heater and only electric fridge. Electric stove but really don't use the stove in the one I have now

If the TT is all elec, I must assume the range and oven to be elec other than gas, and that would be the limiting factor.

Such as? You already understand that you are not going to able to run a lot of things at once. Personally if you only have 30A hookups I would stick with a traditional gas/electric unit.
