I live in the Mojave, so we see some spectacular temps. One day I decided to monitor my Dometic 13.5. When I started the test the OAT was 106 and interior temp was 101. The unit started easily on my Yammy 2400, but as head pressure built the wattage increases to 2040 watts or about 17 amps
The AC will increase 1 amp per 10 degrees above 95 degrees. Doug
Not to mention if running off a generator, the gen will simultaneously drop 1-1.5% hp for every 10 degrees.....lose/lose at higher temps.
