Generator 110 question

Not sure if giving details will help with this question but, I have an Onan Microquiet 4.0 with 2 12 volt coach batteries.
Question is; I tried to turn my TV on with the Gen running and no current, is it normal because of the load running only AC and lights to NOT have the 110 attached to the Generator or am I missing something ?

    How about forgetting to disconnect the hose or power cable before pulling out? I have seen that many times as well.

    This one was mine. It was the power cable.

    My funniest bonehead was when I decided to clean my black tank. I dropped a bunch of laundry detergent in the tank and used a sprayer wand to agitate it. Then I proceeded to fill the tank. I was standing right under the vent pipe and a guy walked up and we started talking. I forgot all about the water pouring in to the toilet! Next thing I know brownish soap suds start dropping on my head! The other guy's jaw dropped! I looked up and soap suds are pouring out the vent stack.

    I ran inside and stopped the water just at the edge of the rim of the bowl! Did not help that I had a head full of brownish soap suds and the other guy could not stop laughing.
    The visual I got from reading this had tears running down my face. Thanks for a good laugh!
  • That is CLASSIC !
