I have a question for you W/D equipped rigs. I think I understand when you are using a combo unit and it washes then dries the clothing for ever how long, 1.5 to 2 hours or whatever, how much power is it using? If one is fortunate to have a separate washer and dryer, then how much power does each use and can you do this with 30 amp with careful monitoring of power usage, or is this something that should only be tried while on 50 amp. I can't imagine if two A/Cs are going, the Washer AND the Dryer, then one fires up the microwave. WOW, what power management?

We don't RV enough and don't mind using external laundry facilities so I am just curious, with no intention of getting either of these setups, but I've always wondered.
