 Do any hybrid owners have these and if so do you really use them?  We had a bunkend light for our popup but it didn t have the fan.  I read that the fan helps circulate heat/air to the bed areas.  They are so expensive I just wanted to know if they are worth the $$.  We will probably use ceramic heaters to help heat the ends if necessary and we already have two of these.  I also think they work on " fan only"  with no heat.  Our new hybrid has the outlet to plug them in but doesn t come with them.

 PopUpTrioHi! I use my bunkend fan/lights through the day and night it keeps the ends cool, So I?m able to jump  in there in the day and take a nap. The other thing I do is I run a small dehumidifier to help pull the water out so it make my trailer feel even colder than it is. Which helps my AC.

 PopUpTrioOur Popup came with three so I held on to a couple when I sold our Popup.  To be honest they are nice fans but way over priced.  You can pick up fans at Wal-Mart in the auto section for $10. Now if you are dry camping you need to watch how much of your battery you use for one of these and that is where the bunk end fans are probably better.  The makers of Fantastic Fan make one called Endless Breeze if my memory serves.  Its expensive but really moves the air.  
 
 When we ve camed I ve used a little forced air heater to move the air around and it did a great job, but the back bunk was chilly.  I think putting two small heaters, one on either end of the camper would have been better than one heater with a bunkend fan.  If you have hook up s I think two small 740w heaters works pretty good.  You can also add a heat strip for aroud $50 to your AC.  It won t really heat the camper, but it will take the chill off and help to move the air around for you.
