Hey, Truck camper folk. We are in the process of spec'ing our camper. I've decided on a Propex unit. Our camper is the Outfitter Manufacturing Caribou Lite. So a pop-up, with reasonably insulated upper fabric, tho likely not as heavy as the thermal pack on a Four Wheel. Anyone with Propex experience? Based on my research so far, I think the more powerful 9500 btu unit (HS2800) is probably the way to go. Would be nice to hear from folks who've used these heaters. For reference, the coldest we typically camp is mid/upper teens F., usually warmer--think autumn in CO at altitude, so I'll be sure to get the altitude mod.

We're in the process of ordering a Caribou Lite 8 from Outfitter Manufacturing. Key in the setup will be dual lithium batts (200ah total) + solar to run the 3.8 cf compressor fridge. How much solar do you think we'll need? A single 200 watt panel is the first option, but the camper has an external port, and we do have a 60 watt Renogy suitcase panel that we can use with the port. Is 260 watts enough, or should be order a second 200 watt roof panel?

Thanks!
