Not so. Suicide cords with a pair of generators force you to pull your whole load through one of the 20-amp receptacles. That’s absolutely not the same.
Yeah yeah I know what you’re all worked up about, if some dummy plugs just one cord in and puts the other in their mouth they’ll zap themselves. Some of us are smart enough not to do that.
But if you’re worried about that simply use banana plugs on the ends of the cords instead of standard 20-amp AC plugs. Then you have nothing to squeak about it’s just as child proof as the overpriced and not-nearly-as-good factory parallel kit.
Not really. One can make a sensible cord up using the correct banana plugs and install a 30A outlet in said cable. That would be just as good as the factory setup. It just takes a small effort and some common sense.
