I'm still debating between a class "C" or a "B", but one of the things I want to bring along is a small in size, inverter generator, even though the motorhome will have an Onan onboard.
The Powerhouse 500 watt one looks OK at $350. For what I would be using it for, the capacity is a bit puny, but enough to charge batteries and run basic stuff. Next step up is a Honda EU2000i Companion which would handle virtually everything but the A/C.
$350 US? No way it's worth that,
read this. FWIW, you
won't be running much of a charger with just a 500 watt genset unless you can manually restrict it's charging rate, which your MH is sure not to have. And obviously, an EU2000i is hardly the
"next step up", even Honda's own EU1000i may suffice for what you have in mind. Depends on the intended load, how much you're willing to spend, and how much you're willing to lift. :)
