generator

I know how to boondock - did it for 40 years with a pickup camper. And I have all the non-powered equipment I need to minimize trailer battery use. But worry about drawing down the battery too much over a 3-day period because of the trailer's parasitic draws. I have an 80 watt solar panel...

I want to mount my generator on the back of my 2018 Wildwood trailer bumper and hard wire it into my WENCO power center with a manual rotary DTDP switch. Anybody done this successfully?

I’m running a 2017 Sunseeker. The onboard generator has worked just fine every time I’ve needed it until now. I’ve been in CO with temps in the high 90-100. When I start the generator to run the AC, everything starts up and runs fine for anywhere between 15-45 minutes. Then suddenly with no...

When i was purchasing my new to me 2016 Force. One of the hang ups was the generator would not stay running. Fault Code 12 replace inverter. Cummins Onan gave a quote of $3,700.00. The inverter itself was $2,700 and the other $1k was labor. Waiting for it to be repaired was not an option as...

Just want to throw this out there for anyone looking for a generator. I bought a 4500 Champion invertor generator and it powers everything on my TT (Geopro 19fs). I can run air conditioner and microwave, all lights, music, tv, everything at once and still only pulls about 3/4 power from the...

Hoping someone may be able to help... pulled into campground last night (Baton Rouge KOA) and our generator just up and quit! 2020 DX3 with 64 hours on the genny. Thankfully we are plugged into 50 amps and everything but the genny is working as normal. I have power to the terminal block on the...

So, here we are in a campground, plugged in to 50 amp power since last Thursday. Today is Monday. I was walking the dog. Came back and our generator is running! Still plugged in to 50 amp power. Shut everything off, including the generator, unplugged the AC power. Plugged it back in, turned...

A Cummins Onan 5500 LP was installed aftermarket in March 2021 on a 310GK. The generator has 15.6 hours on it and it will not start. I've checked the following: 1) Oil level (good) [emoji736] 2) Battery (good) [emoji736] 3) Recently fired up as of 2 weeks ago[emoji736] 4) Propane tanks were...

Hello, we have a 2017 Forest River 3010DS. This weekend while at a BBQ competition we noticed a number of electrical problems on Friday evening and into Saturday. I will try and best explain both the issues we saw and what we have looked at so far. So far everything I've looked at has been from...

I am a recent owner of a 2021 Isata 3 and am loving it so far. However today I tried to run my one A/C (13500 BTU) only on generator power (3200 watts) and it would not start. Only two LED bulbs were on in the coach and not other appliance. Any ideas of what I need to do? I am a newbie in...

My 5er has a residential fridge. It runs on 120v when hooked up and through a 1200W inverter when on batteries. I installed a Microair easy start today on my rear a/c unit (15,000 BTU) and ran it on my Champion 2500W genset and it worked great. I had the fridge breaker off for the 5 starts...

We would like to be able to operate our camper to it's fullest potential (within reason) while dry camping at motocross tracks over the weekend. I own a Husky brand generator that is a 5,500 (6,500 starting watt) generator. For some reason it will run the A/C for just a few minutes then it will...

We've got a new 17 and a new Honda 2000 and a crazy problem. 1) The generator works stand alone 2) The 110 power works in the trailer when connected to shore power 3) But connecting the generator to the trailer doesn't work. We're using the same cord as well as a new cord. Feels like we're...

I have a Honda 1000 and just wanted to have it charge the batteries in my Forrester RV. As soon as I plug it in it immediately shuts down. I have everything shut off in the unit that might draw too much power, like the AC or electric hot water, nothing but a few LED lights and the OneControl Can...

I am looking at getting something in this range of power, 2 AC units and other small loads. One thing that stands out is the db ratings. Champion is 61db, Westinghouse is 52. Wondering if anyone has these and can comment on the noise level?

I noticed today that my WFCO transfer switch is “generator priority” and is “shore power pass through”. My inverter is wired to the transfer switch generator input and the shore power is wired to the shore power input. This has 2 implications: 1) When both shore power and generator/inverter...

The time has come to sell my Hi-lo. We love it but just don’t use it enough to justify keeping it. I pull it with a 1/2 ton pickup and gas mileage only drops 2-3 mpg. Front kitchen/living area. It has 2 TVs, dvd, blue led strip under awning, rear camera, power jack, 3 way refrigerator...

Please respond only if you ARE running a portable generator to run a 5th wheel with 2 A/C units. I sold my Cummins Onan 5.5 due to needed repairs and a years worth of frustration working on it. Now I am about to buy a portable inverter generator to take its place. I am looking at a...

Only because I know nothing about generators, would a 2000W generator be enough to power the A/C in our Wolfpup? This is the one that I'm looking at: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00SMNLF4M/ What's the group experience? TIA

Mostly to use for recharging the batteries. So very light load. There are a few days I will need to run AC - I have 2 2000 w generators that can run in parallel Thanks
