15 amp service
Yahoo Message Number: 102757
We are planning a trip to one of my favorite camping spots, good ol San Felipe Baja Ca. The campground we want to stay at only has 15 amp electrical hookups. Should this be a concern to us? We have the vintage 85 FL. Mostly this question concerns running the a/c. Thanks!  John O. 85FL.

In my '89/22ft, the A/C trips a 15amp circuit breaker here at the house.
Works fine on a 20amp breaker that is on another circuit.   I don't know what the A/C units actually draw, but I bet someone in The Group does.   BTW, my buddy, who is a retired cardiac surgeon and computer guru never bothers with caps, apostrophes, commas or any other form of punctuation, other than periods.   I asked him about it and he says "I type fast, and I really don't care to take the time to do the punctuation."
 I have noticed that my twenty-something children do the same, it comes from their frequent cell phone texting, which they can do without looking while also doing their college homework and eating a pizza.   They also used to do it while driving (And eating a burger and drinking a soda), but California Law put a stop to that, thanks goodness.   They are accident free, but I have no idea how.

We have an '87 RL and have parked in friends driveways before using 15 amp to run the A/C and then leave the frig on propane. Haven't had any problems doing that and I think others on the list have done the same.
