Do do you need an invertor type ?? Also isn’t a 4000 watt a little large to carry around ?? These guys camping here say they don’t need the ac because it doesn’t get that hot
I recently spent 20 days camping (10 in May, 10 in July). We had many days where temps got well above 85*F. It was nice to run the A/C off my 3500W Predator inverter generator. The generator ran very quite with a noise level around 50-52db @ 30'. My A/C was drawing about 17 amps.
The inverter types are usually quieter than open frame types and more compact / smaller. My HF Predator 3500W is much quieter than my Champion Dual Fuel 4750W which runs about 65-67db @ 30'.
Both are heavy IMO. The Predator as small as it is weighs 117# with a full tank and the Champ weighs about 134#. Those weights weren't a problem in my younger days but not something I want to lift in or out of the truck by myself today.
