Interesting. I haven't taken a look, but I know the RV has a circuit panel. I guess you can shut some shit off if needed. As long as it can run the AC I'll be fine. I think the fridge can be run on propane and 12v.

It can run the AC and fridge is nothing. The big draws are AC and microwave.

also, if your camper didn’t come with LED bulbs, swap all the bulbs out asap. Mine was old so it didn’t, not sure what the deal is on newer ones these days but huge draw difference. Doesn’t matter if plugged in but big deal if not

I would have probably done that anyway unless it requires changing the fixtures. I'm generally pretty happy with the led replacement bulbs I've been using around the house. I don't care about the energy draw, I just got tired of replacing the incandescents.

No fixtures change, just pull one of your non-led and google code on the bulb, buy the LED version

I'm pretty sure I'd murder someone if I tried to RV today. WTF is it with people bringing their TV systems, sound systems and other loud, annoying things to go camping? Kind of ruins the peace and quiet bit. And then there's the being loud and getting drunk bit. People have forgotten how to have fun without alcohol.

Boating has also been ruined by idiots, but it's been that way for a while. Clueless on ramps, clueless on the water, add in drunk because being sober is for squares.

The only RV that is worth buying these days:

Kung-Flu unfortunately released a lot of idiots who have never spent time outdoors into the wild during the lockdowns. There's also the YouTube adventure channel BS where zoomers or millennials will record their retarded trips out into the wilderness with whatever adventuring implement.

I know I have bitched in the past of just people that lack any sort of fishing etiquette that have never picked up a rod, or don't know the damnedest thing of handling and unhooking a fish, but yet they're out there in droves. I can't imagine it's any different than stuff like camping or rving.

On one hand you get annoyed by them because they're newbies or whatever the hell, but on the other hand if you're going to be a steward of that outdoor activity, it's a responsibility to at least tell them they're being a fuckup. You can do it tactfully, and you can also just tell them stop being a dipshit and go back to California.

I'm all for people enjoying the sport of fishing or just spending time outdoors because it's healthy, but God damn do some learning before you come and screw up my free time.
