Very helpful, thanks. Going to order my 400 next week.
We love ours. Picked it up in Mesa, AZ two weeks ago. Traveled through AZ, the canyons and parks of Southern Utah, through Nevada, Idaho, Oregon, and home to Washington. We figured things out along the way (with massive help from this forum — thank goodness for cellular enabled iPads). We had a blast. What an amazingly well designed camper!
When we get ready for the shower, I set the Alde thermostat to position 2 for the electricity. Just before we enter the shower (1 at a time) I kick the shower Icon all the way up. That add's to the heat for about 30 minutes. Just before Wife showers I re set the shower icon up again. Have also set the gas on some times. So far, the elect has been ok by itself with the addition of the shower boost. We also make use of the on / off button for the water flow on the shower handle.
Big Grover, Congrats on the decision! Know it will definitely be different then the other unit and know you will love the difference. By the way Don't know if the CPAP generates any heat? If it does or if it makes much noise, it is located real close to you sleeping position. Also, there is a power connection located in that cubby.

We’ve showered without boosting the heat and it seemed to work well. Propane heat seems to work faster to bring things up to temp. I managed to shower and only use about 2 gallons of water. My wife used a bit more. Not that it matters.....

Atla, it does generate heat and is just a little too wide to fit in the cubby so I am going to have to rig a shelf for it.
