Now the fun begins.

I highly recommend doing a weekend campout in Camp Driveway. Just pretend that you are in the wilderness and test out all of the systems. Don't go into the house unless you have to. Then make lists. Only plug in the camper if your battery gets low (around 12.1V). Try to use everything on 12V while camping but be sure to test your 110V outlets and air conditioner if you have (at least) a 20A outlet available. You may need an adapter.

Fill up your propane tanks and water tank and don't hook your hose to the camper. Use the water from the tank and use the toilet and shower in the camper. Be sure to fill the water heater before turning it on (just open the hot water faucet in the galley and turn on the pump. You will hear air escaping, then a steady strean of water when the water heater is full).
Just be sure that you have a place to dump when the campout is over.

If you do your 1st campout at a campground, it will be much harder and frustrating when you discover what you have forgotten.
