Noob question

Does the Air Conditioner run off of propane when there is no electricity available on a 17n?

Unless that unit has a special unit, no electricity, no a/c. Welcome to boondocking, good on cooler days, sucks in a heatwave.

Thanks Chilly I was afraid of that. We are heading to where it's in the100's and no electrical. I think a change of plans are in order.

I hear you, did that once last year as the campground screwed up the reservation. was kind of fun, did everything over the open fire including lobster tails with all the fixings. But nite time with thick bush and no wind was a TAD bit uncomfortable.

Your microwave and air conditioning require 120 electric. Your lights, furnace, water heater and fridge do not require the trailer to be plugged in.
