Hello Campers,

I have a 2018 Cougar 29BHSWE. It can run on 30 Amps fine. However I was warned that I may draw too much amperage to run the microwave and the heater/ac at the same time. (I've operated both at the same time on a 30 amp and all was well; like no fuses blown)

My question is, can I use a 50 amp camp site and be ok? Or is it just a waste of money to spend the extra dollars for a 50 amp when I just need a 30 amp?

Thanks!
