? On quiet generators and size needed for TT ac

I recently bought a Ryobi 2300 watt inverter, and to my suprised it allowed my to run the AC in my camper!

Ok I saw the easy start video, so it sounds like a 2.k watt invertor Honda will in fact run the ac,,, is there any downside to using the easy start ?why don’t the manufacturers just put them in to start with ?

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

We have ours mounted but weight is not really a big issue as me and my wife can lift it had we need to take it in and out of the trailer to run it.

Quiet is also not a big issue since campgrounds have rules to shut off all generators either 7 through 10 every night anyways.

I don't know about not needing a/c but had your trailer been in a treeless or not parked on a shade, you will definitely need one should you want to rest inside during the day and even nights.

Humm pls explain

A 2000 watt inverter generator will usually run an AC if you have the MicroAir EasyStart installed on the AC. Without it, you would probably need two of the inverter generators hooked up in parallel.

Get 4,000 watts to run the a/c reliable, the ref and turn on the microwave from time to time.

Genny is slang for "generator". I have a 5.5 kw Onan "genny" in my toyhauler, so I am not very knowledgeable about the smaller portable units, My perception from camping with folks that have (typically) 2,000 watt Honda generators is that they are mostly used for battery charging and running a coffee pot or a hair dryer. A 2,000 watt unit might run a 13,000 BTU AC unit, but I think they would be hard pressed to run a bigger unit for any length of time. As far as which is the quieter unit, you can look at the manufacturer's claims.

I think Terryallen meant to say air conditioner, not genny.
Inverter generators are quieter than open frame models. And, they supply 'clean' electricity that will not harm electronics, etc..
I don't know which one is the quietest, they all get louder under a load.

What’s a “genny” is that slang for ac ?? Sorry im confused.. im aware of campground rules, thinking of it when boomdocking...and again what size would I need to run ac and which isnquieyest
