The Fantastic Fans are great! I would suggest springing for the one with the
rain sensor. That way you can leave the fan on even when you aren't in the
camper and it keeps the air circulating. Should it start raining
unexpectedly the vent closes automatically. It also has a thermostat on it.
I used mine nearly non stop for the last 4 days on a trip to Kentucky where
it was cool and the A/C was not necessary.
Thanks, Geven
