What generator size works best?
My set up is ALL electric with 13,500 A/C. I am looking at a generator to run the TT while on the beach this summer. I was thinking 5,000 watts. Any input would be appreciated.

With 5,000 watts, you might still have to watch out if you try to run the microwave when the A/C is on and trying to charge the batteries.
On my DP the Onan 7.5KW will run both 15,000 A/Cs, the microwave, the 60A charger and other stuff. From my control panel, it looks like there's still plenty of room to run a hair dryer at the same time, but I haven't tried it yet.
The simplest thing is to go to your nearest tool / equipment rental place and rent a 5,000W for a couple hours. If they have a large yard where you won't be in the way, take your TT and try it their yard
