Gotcha.
I have a 50amp trailer and have two adapters to step down my 50amp cord to 30amp and then 30amp to 15amp.
The more that I read, it sounds like there's no benefit to directly using the 30amp connector at the generator, though. Just step down to 15amps and plug straight into that on the generator.
I think I recall a Home Depot link for a 50amp to 15amp pigtail that was only like $45 or so. That would let me keep my expensive 50amp cable locked up and just use my heavy duty 10g or 12g extension cord.
