Two 2200i Honda with the connect cable will give you 30 amp, but you are looking at Close to or over $2000. 30 amps is only one (1) 120 volt live leg. It is one 120 live leg and one ground and one neut.

I am in the process of helping a friend to replacing AC and other 120 volt appliance that just had the same thing done. They smoke. So far two AC, Microwave. TVs and not sure on the Charger yet . Not sure if it feed back into the engine computer and alternator. I am sure you will get other suggestions.
I think you may have misunderstood me. There are two separate input lines going to the transfer switch from the current gender. Each line contains its own hot, neutral, and ground. Both lines happen to be energized by one 120volt generator. I’m saying split the 240 and apply a 120 volt leg to each of the two inputs.
