The difference between 30 service amps and 50 amp service in a RV is 70 amps and that is a lot.30 amp service is rapidly becoming obsolete even many of the smaller units now are built with 50 amp service. We can get along on 30 amps if need be but it takes careful power management.In our previous Florida winter C.G just about all of the not used sites were 30 amp sites.All of the sites at this C.G have 50 amp service.We will not stay at a C.G without 50 amp service even overnight execpt in a emergancy.IMO it is not a good idea to stay long term in your type Rv with 30 amp service.
