Find info on the POLAR CUB, ---->here
PPL Motor Homes seems to be currently selling POLAR CUB 9201's (and at a sale price). The data sheet indicates that it still pulls max amps of less than 9. The HONDA EU2000i is rated to produce about 16.6 amps for a short time (let's say a half an hour). The 'cruising speed' of the HONDA is ~13.3 amps (80% of 2,000 watts).... AT _SEA_ LEVEL!
When you go up in altitude, you have to derate the HONDA. At seven or eight thousand feet you might not have enough amps to run a larger converter to charge your batteries. That's why it is important to have the equipment to monitor the amp load of your electrical system. You can take non-essential equipment offline if your wiring is arranged thusly. In the worst case, you should at least have a device to monitor your voltage (at a camper outlet). If your measured voltage is falling below 110 volts, you are in trouble.
This is the kind of sloppy investigating that makes these thread so long
If you look at the bottom of the page your link takes you to and go to it enter the model you have it will tell you is is no longer available ,refers you to 47201a876 =11.7 amp
If you look at PPL`s site and notice the model # cub it says they are shipping it says 49201a876= 11.5amp , old model no longer made
