Used generator first time
Hooked up my Champion 3100 watt to the 5th wheel for the first time today. Worked great, tried air and even in economy mode ran the air just fine. With generator 20 feet away only a faint sound of it ...

Yeah, our Champion 3100 runs our AC unit without a hint of duress, even on eco-mode and at high elevations. Noticed that the Champion did indicate the same issue on my 120VAC monitor, I just silenced the alarm on the monitor and have already put over a 100 hours on the genny since I purchased it last April. Have an Onan onboard that has never set-off the AC voltage monitor with this issue, after a decade of ultra-dependable service, it was major overkill for most of our power needs.
Saw a deal on the Champion 3100 with remote start that I just couldn't pass on, just like the Onan, a quick press of the remote and away she goes. The Champion puts out a solid 122 volts whether powering our AC or hardly anything at all. The Onan would drop a few volts if under heavy demand, not enough to matter, just something I noted over the 1K plus hours of use. Currently looking for our next rig which will not have an onboard genny, I feel confident the Champion 3100 will serve us well for many years to come.
