>> The above numbers are not theory--they are my observations.
My current *theory* is that instead of spending time arguing
about power consumption, you should spend the time INSTALLING
and USING a Vitri.  I think you'll then agree that it one of the
best mods to a Westy possible.  ;-) <<

Agreed 100%. I love the thing, I just need to work out the battery issue.
It's  running off my starter battery for the next few hours as I have my
second aux battery in the campground bathroom charging at the moment. ;)  My
regular aux battery is at 11.9 volts after driving around today for about an
hour and putting up the solar panel on the roof when I parked. I think the
bottom line is I could probably go the entire week if I upped my solar
output quite a bit. That is something to consider for next year.

And BTW, I have it set at about 6.5 since that seems to be my magic number
for keeping stuff frozen in the freezer. I had it at a little lower than 5
on the last camp trip and the frozen stuff was mush.
