Hi All - bad coverage area..
Battery reads 100%, but drops to 85% with out the use of the inverter. Suspect I have either a bad/sick battery, or an unknown draw. We are dry camping with temps in the low 30's.
What uses the less amount of juice: Furnace
Heat pump
Floor heat off of hyrohot Gold Heat
Will drive out to coverage area later tomography to Droid check back in for any input.
TIA,

Snotty ( ?? ) The roof top heat pumps and the Gold Heat floor heat do not work off the inverter/battery. They need the generator running to work, if dry camping, you will have to use the furnace.

Furnace on diesel, Don't use the electric side. I have a 2004 Allure with Gold Heat and it is strictly electric.

Two lessons here:
1) Don't try to type on small key boards, with a bouncing car
2) Smitty and Snotty are just typo just a few keys to the left for m and to the right for i....
Don - We have the same vintage Allure's. I see the zone 1 and 2 settings on the white thermosat. It has a heat pump (understand now not to use that, as that is pure electric invert driven, nor the floor heating (thought that was off of the HydroHot, leaning more every week). I thought the furnace was LP driven? Is the furnace diesel fed?
We have the old Bounder's Propane Heat Buddy ready if needed tonight...
Sure appreciate the help, as we've about a 70% set of manuals and books - seems like the missing 30% is close to 90% of what I'm looking for LOL!
Sitting still in the Teton's, is much better for typing on small key boards! Smitty,
