rollerteam zepiro 69
Can I ask advice please I have a 2017 rollerteam 696 zepiro when you put blown heating on when off grid. Does the fan that circulates heat around the van use much battery power could you leave your heating on low during the night with out having a flat battery

My Truma is good for two nights on the battery, three at a stretch provided it's not too cold i.e. above 0°.

many many years! since I was a kid
The fan that circulates the warm air takes more on start up, and when it cuts in and out than on a slow trickle. A couple of amps up to three or four depending on the size of the van. So 24 hours x 4 amps is 96a/h you need to supply just for the heating if left on 24/7 or 10 hours 40a/h. That is a very big drain on the leisure batteries
