I am tickled with my Power-pro generator. I just used a 50 amp to 30 amp converter pigtail....it has the 4 prong male 50 amp plug on one end and a female 3 prong RV plug on the other.....and I cut off the 4 prong plug and added the twist lock 220 plug that came with the genset. So I don't have any worries about not getting the maximum amps to the rv. The 220 plug is 30 amp. I also made a gen-turi which made the gen. even more quiet. I just followed the examples that others made in the forum. I used black plastic pipe from Lowes and a conduit ell. I spaced the ell with 1/2 " copper pipes placed at 120 degrees inside the black pipe....as someone else did in this forum. I just drilled a hole in the ell and the exhaust pipe of the gen. to pin the ell and allow for easy removal. The Power-pro exhaust pipe is only about 7/8 " so I used 1" conduit and 2" black pipe....it works perfectly. I don't feel that back pressure is a problem due to the small amount of exhaust from this engine. If your generator has a larger exhaust pipe of course you have to use larger pipe to your gen-turi.
Anyway....I am thrilled at the info I have gotten from all of the rv forum members. It really helps when problems are encountered to have this resource to call upon.
