Is my generator big enough?
I have have a Coleman 2500 watt generator and I am wondering if it will pull my rooftop AC on my 19ft travel trailer? My rooftop AC is a Duo-Therm Model: 57915-541. It does not say how many watts it...

Hi,
Generators are rated in VA not watts. At low altitudes and with some air conditioners 2000 VA is enough. Others may not be so lucky. The only way to tell is to try it and monitor the voltage. If it dips way low, then it may not be a good idea to do it.
