I have a Yamaha 3000 that well put out 3500 for a short time if needed. I can also just push my remote and it starts up and can shut it off with the remote. The difference is I don't even have to be in the camper to turn it on if I want. As long as I'm within range it well start it. I am going to set it up to ride on the tongue of my enclosed trailer that I have on order so it well be with us most of the time. When the trailer isn't I also have a Honda 2000i for those times. the Yamaha is also an invertor generator so when a lot of power is not needed it well idle down and only produce what is needed. I have had onboard generators before and the present camper is wired and generator ready but I'll stay with my Honda and Yamaha. This is IMO
