Generators
I have the champion generator that camping world sales 4000/3500 watt. My question is this safe to run the electronics like the flat screen tv and refrigerator circuit, or do I really need to buy the ...

Especially with a non-inverter generator that runs full bore all the time, like the Champion. You may also have to turn up the TV sound at night because of the generator noise.
Just out of curiosity, how is an inverter more efficient than a generator in powering a TV - or anything else?.
You can do it, yes, but it's not a common sight in most boondock places I've been to. And the neighbors really won't like it. Many CGs have generator hours too, so, for TV watching an inverter is really the way to go.
