The Honda 2000 was never intended to run a 13,500 BTU AC. Do the math, on a really good day, at sea level, with absolutely nothing else on.... maybe. We do get the occasional "mine did it just fine" post but the numbers say otherwise. If you want to screw up your AC run it with less than the ideal voltage.
I am a Harbor freight fan, have lots of their cheap tools but unless they are different then every other generator retailer once you run it.... it's yours forever. Good luck trying to return any motor that has swallowed oil and fuel. A local storefront might take it but forget about shipping it anywhere.
A trip to the internet will produce lots of very unhappy Champion owners, with service, or rather the lack thereof as the number one complaint on a generator line with a very checkered, albeit short term history. If one more person posts about how quiet they are I might just scream... but rest assured it will not be as loud as a 3000W Champion. :B
As always.... Opinions and YMMV. :C
