I debated between the 2000 & 2800 for some time... the price and size of the 2800 was only a bit more, and I tent camp in the summer...
boler is for the other three seasons generally. It gets very wet out here on the rain coast.if I did it again I would go 2000 as the 2800 will roast you right out of the trailer if you want. My trailer did not have a
fridge or icebox when I bought it, so I removed the lower drawer of the three built in its place and mounted it there. During this rebuild I will be moving it to one of three locations, as I am going to instal some type of
fridge in the original spot... above the wheel as is original? In the closet above the wheel opposite side? Or under the front gaucho? I am yet undecided. Anyhow... performance. It sips the
propane (efficient) so that’s nice, it does use a bit more
battery than I would like as the fan runs as soon as it comes on and then runs after until the burner has cooled. You can run just the fan if you want to circulate air which is nice tho. I do not have numbers for you as I do not have gauges n such wired in. I will say that a single deep cycle
battery lasted 6 days of using it most every night in soggy Tofino first trip out and had juice left with no recharging system of any type. Noise? Well, when running it’s actually a pretty soothing low growl... I do wish it didn’t have to keep blowing on cool down cycle after as that is a bit louder. I guess it depends how
light of a sleeper, and where you mount it. ( part of why I am debating on mounting it below the floor, beneath the gaucho, further from the bed. Don’t get me wrong... it’s not like sleeping at an airport runway, I just prefer natural night sounds like rustling leaves, and the sound of pebbles being clawed back into the ocean after the thwooooggggggssshhhhhhhhhh of the waves)
