On a single 120 volt outlet I have been able to run one AC as well as the TV and lights. I switch off the AC when using the microwave.
The WH is on propane as is the refrigerator.
It just requires energy management and watching the meter to see how many amps you are drawing.
X-2, I've done this before Brian, but you don't want to do this in extreme heat!
If you do this and do not have an PI EMS that shuts down current at 104v, I suggest you get a Kill-A-Watt and plug it in. Of course you will want to check occasionally. If current drops to 104V, turn off the A/C. If you let the A/C run at 104 or below, you will start incurring heat damage and shorten the life.
