Don't laugh. I hooked two hair dryers to the generator. One 1875, one 1625. So that puts me over 3000 watts right. So the generator ran about 10 minutes this way and never went to overload. But I'm roughly at sea level right now and only 80 degrees ambient temperature.
Is this a good way to test the generator output?
I don't think that is a good comparison your comparing a blower with heating element vs the start up of a electric motor which spikes the amps at startup...
If you have not tried it yet. Check your breaker panel and see if you have a breaker for the converter. If you do, switch it off. Then try running the generator with the AC... Thisis the only way I can get the 11k btu dometic AC in the garage of my toy hauler to run on my Honda eu2000...
