mep1811 is correct. The only real draw is the fridge. I actually unplugged my fridge because I keep something in the fridge door to keep it open to air it out. If is open the light inside the fridge is on. Usually mine is in the garage, but I have it sitting in a friends yard. It is on solar...

Rbindawoods, Welcome. I used to backpack a bit myself. Section hiked almost all of the Appalachian Trail. Never did complete it. Would have liked to do a thru-hike, but never had the time. Nor did I discover the merits of NOBO vs SOBO.
