[QUOTE="dblkluk, post: 308252, member: 3902"] I built one 2 years ago and use it almost exclusively in the early spring, late fall, and winter. Its not terribly "stealth" as I have added alot of windows. LP tanks, roof rack etc. But its built off a 6 x12 V aluminum framed Cargo pro trailer. Its nicer inside than 90% of the production RVs on the market, and built better than 100% of them. I have 100 watts of solar and 2- 31 series AGM batteries and if the temps get into the low teens or single digits even with solar, I have about 2 days max in my battery bank before the voltage drops too low to run my 16K Suburban forced air heater. THEY ARE BATTERY PIGS!! I have to run my generator alot on longer trips in those temps as along with short days and often heavy cloud cover, the solar simply cant keep up. I'd like to see what my system would do with lithiums (the weight savings would be really nice) but I cant justify spending 2k in batteries, when I can just run my Honda 2000 watt generator for a few hours. Next build I'm definitely going to look into a diesel heater. [/QUOTE]
