Not to stoke the fire, but I live outside of Phoenix, AZ and can start/run my 15k AC in 110 degree summer weather. I have had the Champion (2800 continuous 3100 peak) for over a year and have had no issues even at 5000ft - didn't need it at that elevation, but wanted to see what it could do for a test. The benefits of the Champion is cost, output and noise level. I sold my EU2000i after my buddy and I tested them side by side. Noise level is nearly identical. It is heavy, but has wheels and two big handles so you could get someone to give you a hand lifting it. I can tell you the Honda would not start the AC ever, and when the heater was on in the trailer the Honda would trip every now and then when we tried to use the microwave.
