Is this a powerful enough Generator for me?
TT has a 13500btu air conditioner. This Westinghouse 2200 watt seems very reasonable priced at $480. Surge 2200 & runs 1800. Big selling pt is only 52dB It claims it can power a 135...

Alright, alright.
Everyone panicking that I *may* be the idiot next to them running a 52dB genset in an enclosure while they are trying to sleep just relax.
My *thought* was actually for DAY USE for AC in the hot sun when everyone is out and running around and we needed to cool off but weren't at a site with electric. The county park we go to all the time only allows 10am-12pm & 5pm-7pm for gens.
Not running it all night. Of course, perceived noise is much louder at night. And yes if it WAS loud I wouldn't the *that* guy anyway, regardless of the daylight usage.
If it isn't as loud as conversation dB anyway, then in a box, and screaming kids all around, didn't think anyone would notice if it actually worked.
Sheeze, looks like I brought up some bad memories for some people that had a crappy night with some morons nearby. Please - do tell.
Anyway, thanks for the input on the Gens.
Either going to just get it, take it home and try it out for a few days and return it if the ADVERTISED "will run a 13.5btu with EASE" doesn't hold up. (HD pretty good on returns)
Or will keep on looking at ones suggested.
