I know, neither was i! ::)
That is just for the heater, ie the thing in the picture that says Thermo 90 on it!  But you then have to buy a header tank, heat exchanger, wiring looms, pipes ect! And of course, if you don't have a tank and a pump, that will also be extra!  ;)

How long have you had it? Do you have it serviced every year?

Yeah, i have mine serviced before the winter, had to have the burner replaced last time on the 90. But the Top C i have is 6 years old and its just had the serviceable bits.
I run 2 x 85ah crossed over batteries on the 90. The auto charger keeps them going during the week, then at the weekend i give them a mains charge.

I have one battery for the Webasto and one for the pumps, but i have them linked/crossed over, this was recommended by the Webasto dealer. They said that the Webasto obviously draws more power on start up, but when in working mode its working on low amps and one battery would be fine but 2 would be better, so i have one for the heater and one for the pumps. I had a problem with error 3 coming up on the display in the first 6 months of having the system, which meant the Webasto didn't have enough power to operate,  so i had an auto electrician have a look at it, and it was because the auto charger was not working properly.  So your problem with your battery maybe the same as mine was?
Its good to hear you keep it serviced, the dealer said that really Webasto's are not normally run for 8 hours constantly a day, everyday, so expect to have a few bits and bobs replaced ect.
