GF's mom just bought a travel trailer. They are planning to get a generator at some time in the future. The TT has one 15KBTU AC, so I'm figuring 3000W or so overall capacity on the genset.s?
Make sure they actually will be camping where it's hot enough to run air. Most people just head for the nearest campground. And please discourage them from thinking they need a big honkin' generator to watch TV.
My usual comment is that I see very few campers actually doing this, and it's a lot of cash to be throwing at a problem that will never happen. Are your future inlaws physically fit, because it's a lot of work.
The only downsides are spilling gas, and the physical exertion of horsing them around. And maybe the engineer in you can get a schematic and figure out that you can make your own parallel cables.
