We still have the original AC units in the coach - whic AC (front or rear) would have the least amount of amperage draw please? We are in a storage bldg with 30-amp service and don’t want to blow the breaker…

In theory, they would be the same. Be SURE to set the tstat on low so that only one of the compressors comes on. I know the numbers should support both compressors running, but my experience is the inrush current will trip a 30 amp breaker.
You could also trip the breaker for the second compressor to be sure.
