Yeah, I've been thinking about solar heating. For now, we have a small LP heater in the camper. I'm also looking into getting - or converting an LP clothes dryer to work/spin on 12 volts. We drilled a 200' water well and was originally thinking of a solar submersed pump, but it was artesian when we first drilled it. Thought is would stop overflowing, but it's been a year and still running out the top. So, we now have a well-fed creek all the local deer come to. I put a $20 Harbor-Freight Chinese-built hand water pump on it which works fine. It won't if the water-head drops, though. I might put in a high water storage tank and fill it occasionally with a gasoline pump, and then let it gravity feed to us. Then, we'd only use the hand pump for cold drinking water.
We have two LP refrigerators and I've been thinking of coverting them to kerosene. But, the way things are going with oil prices, LP might be just as cheap.
