Pretty positive this time we turned AC off first. So when we started looking at a heater I was worried about a 1500 watt. Volts/Watts/Amps are not my strong point.
1500 Watts is less than half what a 30 amp 120 VAC RV can use. You would have to be running another large load plus normal loads (Converter, fridge) to have issues.
