Whats the point of an inverter generator if it's supplying power to your trailer?

Inverter generators are a "type" of generator.

This type tends to be a bit quieter than what most folks call a contractor gen which is a open frame type.

Inverter gens tend to be fully enclosed like a suit case and the engine operates at variable speeds, slow for light loads and full speed at heavy loads. Because the engine can speed up or slow down it uses a inverter to make the output rock solid.

These gens are more expensive than a open frame gen but have the advantage of rather quiet operation.

Contractor or open frame gens operate at a fixed RPM, the alternator goes directly to the outlets. Tend to be noisier and can be considerably noisier than a Inverter gen.

These tend to be much cheaper than a inverter gen.
