Aloha! (dont worry Rv will be on the mainland)

We have 2 of these Patton electric heaters. One is up front and the other is in the bedroom. They are rated for 1500 watts each so they take up a bit of generator and are on separate legs of the 50A service to prevent tripping breakers. They also turn off if tipped over to prevent fire hazards, etc.

So... my advice would be to look for a coach with 50A (instead of 30A) and you can run 2 heaters or 2 A/C units.

Hello Rvers,



I am new to this forum - we live in Hawaii and my hubby and I are considering buying an RV soonish and leaving it on the mainland to use whenever we can!

We have rented 4 times previously and would like to own one to use in summer and other holiday breaks.

We are looking at the Thor Chateau 22B or Four Winds and would LOVE any and all help, feedback, advice, warnings ha ha that anyone feels like sharing!



I am most likely purchasing in Ohio and leaving it in Las Vegas - long story - but would love it if anyone knows honest dealers/good experience in Ohio!



Thank you! So happy I found this bc I have a lot of questions! Will start digging through the threads soon! Aloha, NC



I bought a Quantum GR22. Basically same but with a few options and add on’s you can’t get on the ones you listed. Exact same floor plans.

I don’t like those heaters. They suck power and everyone I ever had broke.
