Generator rating

If you want to reliably run 2 air conditioners and 2 microwaves then the best choice may be the Honda 7000 watt inverter generator.

What the amp ratings on each unit?

Ok.. 30 amps is 3600 Watts so a 4,000 will be best (better to go over than under) unless you have two air conditioners than go 5,000 watts r 5500 watts.

If you have a 50 amp RV 5500 runs everything in MY house (2 A/Cs) but some folks go as high as 7500... 50 amps max power consumption theoretical is 012000 watts. but as I said I get by just fine with 5500.. I even daisy to a 2nd rv, though when I do that I sometimes trip a 30 amp breaker.

Whatever you settled on, please consider a digital inverter generator instead of an open frame job site generator. Those job site ones are dirt cheap for a reason, they're loud as heck.

Where are you planning on using these large generators... Pretty big and heavy and noisy... Also alot of camping sites may have issues with them...

Normally here in lower states you just can't show up fire up the big and loud generator and go on your merry way haha...

Most public camp grounds with no hookups have generator run times restrictions and even sometimes only have certain areas where you can use a generator...

The Natl Forest areas just now here on the East side starting to do the 8AM to 8PM generators allowed. Out West here in theSstates you can find dispersed camping locations and you do what ever you want I guess...

Here on the east side I thing most of us will use a smaller 2KW type very low noise generator and only run a few things which does not include the Air Conditioner or the high wattage microwave...

If you are going to do the RV Traveling as opposed to the RV Camping off the grid then you can find places to run larger generator overnite parked somewhere I guess...

In my case I beefed up the battery system to run Power Inverters and direct connected to the battery things etc and then only use my small 2KW generator each morning to recharge my batteries back up if the battery banks has dropped down to its 50% charge state... Doing this and adding solar panels keeps you in battery power mode a long time...

You will find that if you camp alot off grid you will need a generator for sure and then can use solar panels to trickle charge the larger battery during high sun... You don't always have high sun all the time for the solar panels...

Just things to think about here... I'm sure things up north run about the same way it does down here to the south of you...

Are you powering both trailers simultaneously or one at a time? If simultaneously, do both have air conditioners? Microwaves? Heating appliances such as hair dryers, water heaters, coffee makers, etc?

The generators discussed would not be sufficient for two trailers simultaneously unless one (or both) were fairly modest in their electrical needs. Something like the Honda 7000 watt inverter generator or the Yamaha 6300 watt inverter would be more appropriate in that case. They are neither lightweight nor inexpensive.

3400 would be better.

Would 2800 watts be enough?

Once I know what wattage to go with, I will shop around.

Why that brand?
