iRV control panel power consumption?

[Jimbee]

Hey All,

Anybody know how much the iRV Rockwood control panel draws when running on batteries only? We just bought a 2018 Rockwood 8301ws 5th wheel and I'm trying to estimate our power consumption for some dry camping trips next season. Fridge, radio, propane detector etc. I can estimate but haven't had a central control panel before and I have no idea what they pull.

Thanks!

I’m a very new trailer owner so I can’t speak from experience in that respect. I am an electronics technician though, and I’d suspect the draw off the panel itself is negligible. I’d be very surprised if it pulled even 1 amp, but I’d expect much less.

The door heater in your Dometic fridge (if you have one) pulls 0.5 amps. I'm sure the control panel (itself) is less than that.
