Yes you can get an adapter but will be pulling from just half the generator. So it becomes 4000 watts and is plenty for a 30 amp RV. Not sure how the mining equipment fits into this. Probably two of the 5-15 outlets come off each side so if you need 120v you are in good shape. A 240v dewatering pump may require the RV to be unplugged or go to low power outlet.

That's what I was thinking when I bought the adapter plug... that we could pull 30-amps 120V.
We run the generator for A/C when on a break but then use the gen for other (mining) stuff as needed.
Now if we connect that adapter plug up and run it to the RV you think we still have 120v extra power available at the other 20-amp standard 3-prong outlets?
Appreciate your taking the time to educate. Thought I had it down but there's still some things to learn about this generator.
