We recently installed two (2) additional deep cell 6v batteries in our 2006 Class A Damon. Plans are to Boon-dock at a local nearby State Park as Docent Volunteers. Butwe are told we will be unable to use shore power at any time...and no generator 10pm to 7am.
SO.....heating we require will be using the 12v Atwood Propane Furnace evenings and when needed. Temps at the park are at freezing "all but 30 days per year" average, so we are told by park rangers. Its high elevation and drops greatly evenings.
QUESTION: using the Atwood Furnace with the 4 - 6v Deep Cell batteries. Can anyone suggest what use and degradation of battery power that we will get.
Obviously we will need to be using 7500 watt Onan generator mornings for Coffee etc then letting Onan run for (how long ?) battery re-charge for use again the following nights heat ?
While sleeping 10pm to 7am and using the 12v Propane Atwood and Battery System, we have no plans of using any other amperage draws other than a led light for bathroom visits
RV is very tite and well insulated with thermo windows covered ceiling vents and sky lights with insulated silver sheets and double insulated shades pulled down all night.
Just need some experienced estimates from those doing this overnight type heating !
I totally understand I will hear IT ALL DEPENDS....All I am hoping for are opinions and guesstimates as to the battery/Atwood useages during the 2 weeks volunteering we are planning.
