    Hi Tom, we are escape owners on the west slope (grand junction). Love our trailer. Have had only minimal problems. Our refrigerator always cools well even at 10,000 feet. We did have to replace the condenser fan on the refrigerator, but that was covered by dometic under warranty. When the fan was inoperable, the refrigerator cooled very poorly, but that was during very hot weather. After replacing the condenser fan the refrigerator works great.

    Absorption/Compressor fridge: I live at altitude 7500 ft and most of my camping will be done in the central rockies. I could opt for the compressor fridge, but this will require quite a bit of battery power to run over 4-6days. I have the ability to go all in on the lithium option, but would also want to use the microwave, make a pot of coffee, charge phones/tablets. I know the propane at altitude can be fickle, but would like to hear thoughts from anyone using propane at altitude or experience with a compressor and its power needs. I am a complete newbie...thanks!

    Battery Needs? Hi, I know this gets discusses a lot and there is no real way to know exact battery/solar needs, but I could use some advice. I am in the build process of a 21C to be completed in March. I am also a complete newbie...first RV first time towing. I will almost be exclusively boondocking, but would still like to be able to run a microwave (heating/popcorn ), make a cup of coffee or toast. I know that doing these things takes a lot of juice. I am considering a lithium batter array with solar. We will not be using AC at all (opting for two max fans), would also like to charge phones and tablets. I would appreciate any advice. Thanks!
