Chance, I agree with you that if you are running a heat pump off the generator, its probably a losing situation. As I pointed out we are usually plugged into shore power, so under those circumstances for us its a win win. As far as failures, I can only tell what my experience with the previous coach was, it had two of them, we used them a lot and in 11 years never had a failure. I can only hope this one is as reliable. If you have a chance, you might look at the Gemini 24TX on the Mercedes Sprinter. You get a little more space inside with the two slides, and a heaver chassis, if that is a concern for you. For me it was, since I wanted the option of towing my toad if I wanted to, though I still have to watch weight to some extent if I do tow. This is very different that what we have been used to, as we had a big DP, and weight was something I rarely thought about, at least in much detail. We just got tired of constantly having to deal with the size of it, so now we are sort of on the other extreme. Time will tell, but there is a lot of adjusting for us, having done such a major downsize. The appeal is the ease of doing things spontaneously with the Gemini, where before there was always a lot of planning that had to go into any trip.
