Electrical plug cheater box

Coach is stored at my business (warehouse) and plugged in 7/24 to a 20 amp receptacle. I would like to pre-cool before hitting the road for a day or two. I can reach 2 different (not on same circuit) 20 amp outlets via extension cords easily to utilize one of these LinkAny harm in running one AC and nothing else safely through one of these? Am I missing something?

No, you will still only have ONE 20 amp outlet feeding the a/c. It will not combine the two outlets to up the amp supply. One side feeds one side of the panel box the other plug the other.

Well if I end up with a clean 20 amp for each side isn't that still more than I would have when I am @ a RV park that only has 30 amp? Anyone can run one AC no problem with 30 amp right?
