Thanks Saltidawg, You had my question correct. To the rest, I didn't mean to stir up such a mess. After 37 yrs as an rv'er I have never boondocked in the Wal-mart. I merely ask a specific question as to the difference of a regular generator to an inverter type.
We live near the coast of SC and years ago we had to use a rv to get by after Hugo. I was just preparing in case another hurricane hit us I would be prepared. And yes I can afford the higher priced inverter generators, but chose to buy what was needed to get by I promise not to pull into the rv park beside you and fire up the construction type rv and ruin you stay.
