Well, I finally took my first trip out in my Prowler. The fam and I LOVE it !! Everything went really well. I did have a couple of hiccups that hopefully you guy's can help me out with.
The first one was that the main breaker ( at the campground pole ) kept tripping. I attributed this to the the A/C being on as well as a few other things and when my ladyfriend fired up the outside electric griddle it tripped it. It was a 30AMP. I have some possible solutions, but should I really have to go this route?
1st - I was useing the electric HW heater. I could switch over to gas and save power there
2nd - I was useing the electric refrigerator. I could switch over to gas and save power there as well.
I thought that useing the gas was primarily for when you don't have campground power, and when you DO have campground power that I should conserve gas and use that
Am I not right?
Is what I experienced normal, or do you think I have a problem somewhere? Everything works fine, just not all at the same time.
Any ideas?
Thanks for all of your help gang !!
BTW: My HW heater quick drain worked excellent, and the dimmer switch that I made for my awning lights that also worked well. So far - so good !!
