What can I do with/expect from a generator?
We have boondocked four days easily without, but for skiing this winter and possibly up to one week of boondocking... Saw a used Honda 3000ec available for $750. What will that do for us? How long do ...

Yeah that’s the generator. I’ll pass on it.
In the near future I don’t see a need for a 3000w generator because we don’t need ac. We live in the pacific northwest and if we go east of the mountains in summer we’ll be hooked up. If down the road that changes I can get bigger.
So for now a 2000 watt if I want to run the heater in the winter (while skiing) and sometimes the microwave?
We’ve been on about 16 trips and a total of 60 days in almost two years and only run the AC for about 3 hours one day.
I checked the batteries and the water is full. No evidence of boil off. We’ve boondocked 4 days and had 2/3 of battery power left. So far no problem with staying plugged in. If I don’t stay plugged in, what is the solution? Isn’t it also unhealthy to have the batteries discharge?
