I think he was using the typical cassette as a comparison to the comment that his Black Water tank was smallish. Meaning, he was saying that a cassette is even smaller so they are happy with the tradeoff of a larger Black water tank so-to-speak. Maybe I'm wrong.
Right, I think what you will find is that perhaps unlike your experiences abroad, the US offers a wider range of climates at much closer distances. As a result, we try not to visit the desert in the summertime and if we find ourselves in a consistently inhospitable hot environment, we make...
Thanks for the update on electric usage. I will go back and re-look at your capacity and which appliances you got. The one thing we have waffled on is an AC so its curious to hear your experiences.
