I did another load with the dishwasher today, running it off the holding tank, and WOW. The added pressure made all the difference! Everything came out sparkly clean!
I will not hesitate to do this again. The pump only ran at most 10 minutes of the whole cycle and I used less than a quarter of my fresh water tank.
Another thing that surprised me is how little power this unit uses, a mere 8A per 1.5 hour cycle. I could run this machine off grid no problem as long as I had a water source!
Yay for a working dishwasher! I also hate doing dishes so I stopped cooking much in my van. That costs more and is less healthful. So, I fully understand how wonderful this newly acquired appliance is!
Someone else who gets it! I don’t know how many times I haven’t bothered to cook because I didn’t want to have to clean up after!
