I have one of those. It draws 5 times the current desired AND would likely 
catch on fire or burn something up if left on for long. It is a 1200 watt 
heater with no fan!

Dave,

If you used a resistor, you'd need 0.6 ohms at least 240 watts.  Probably not 
practical.  You could put a load on your batteries by turning on most of your 
lights, cabin fans and other loads.

I have been following this discussion and would like to do this for my 
batteries.  Can you suggest what would be an easy/appropriate ~20A load 
generating device?  Dave
