Are most camp sites single phase 110v 20a electric?  Do you have problems with plugging heaters and other things in - tripping the breaker?
How do you work around it?  What about a/c?

Most campgrounds have 30 and 50 amp available at the campsite.  I have never had an issue tripping a breaker at the pole, odds are you would trip the breakers on the converter first.

When we camp in colder weather I sometimes use 2 electric heaters.
To avoid overheating the campers wiring I run a heavy duty extension cord into the camper and plug the heater or heaters into it.
