Hi,
New to the forum, we have a '09 Winnebago Destination Pusher, but ready to pull the trigger on a 2012 Anthem. Can the all electrics with residential fridge, elect. stove etc., Aqua Hot, etc. stand up to a couple of weeks boondocking in Southern BC / Montana?
Thanks
Bruce

No problem with a daily run of the generator for a couple hours.

with the 8 house batteries and 2 pure sine wave inverters, they are much more up to the job than probaly 90% of all coaches out there. The new fridges take much less jusice than even a couple of years ago, LCD tvs take less etc. With normal precautions you will not have to run the genny more than once a day and maybe not that often. all just my opinion.

PS -- IF you use the electric cooktop or convection microwave you will likely have to fire up the genny soon, of course with the AGS and temp. controls that is all automatic.

We dry camp alot and have not had any problems with our all electric coach. Set the gen to come on automatically and you shouldn't have a problem. We do not try to conserve on electric so ours will run several times a day but will be good through the night without. Have fun.
