We are at Seaside for 4 days and have a new heater that won't keep the coach warm through the night - drops down to 56 inside. It got down to 30 outside. I have the Arctic package too.

I have a volt meter that plugs into the plugin - it has a green zone between 112 to 126 volts. Before I turn the heater on the indicator shows 113. When I turn it on it drops down to less than 110 or less and doesn't feel as hot as it should be.

It is on a 15 amp circuit and is a 1500 watt ceramic heater. I am on the 50 amp circuit. I am not sure how to check the volts outside coming into the coach.

Thanks for your input.
