Considering that most camp-grounds have electric hook-up, Has anyone tried an
electric heater in their Westy's. I am thinking of 120 vac, NOT 12 vdc. If done
properly electric heat should have less hazards then propane or gasoline. It
should also be cheaper.
One heater I have found:
120 vac
12.5 amps
1500 watts
5,120 btu-Hour
With fan & relay
$115
Now there is only so much that can be done with a 15 amp camp-ground hook-up but
this does compare well with some of the smaller Eberspacher heaters.
