My experience with our 30' TT with enclosed underbelly and arctic package is that 2250 watts of electric will keep you warm down into the low twenties. I use a 1500 watt electric oil filled radiator in the main living room and a 750 watt electric with fan in the bedroom. Saves my propane that way. :-)

Wish I'd thought of that before. I have two of them in my garage as emergency furnace back ups. Not sure I would drag them around camping, but for driveway camping, that would work and save the propane for the road. Even worth considering for winter storage at a low setting to prevent damage to wall mount TV. It can hit 20 below in the winter here.

I found this from a search on winterizing RVs:
Consider leaving one sheltered window open just a crack and then also open a roof vent just a bit at the opposite end of the rig. This will provide some air flow through the rig and will help prevent musty odors or mildew. Some folks like to leave a small source of heat inside the rig to help keep condensation down. A 40 watt light bulb is a safe source of heat and will be inexpensive to run.

It is something of a PITA to pull it out far enough to disconnect all the cables and then unscrew it from the wall mount, but I hadn't considered the condensation issue either. I'll have to look into it, thanks.

I think your TV will be just fine even with a heater.
