Portable Generator Solutions
I have a 19' Rockwood Eco Pro. I'd like to get a generator for camping off the grid. I want to run the A/C so solar is out as a solution. I'm looking at portable generators as a solution but I don't...

Take a look at a Kipor inverter generator. I have the 3000 that I bought in 2009, has worked good for me. I lock it in the bed of my truck at the tail gate. I also have a fiberglass bed lid that closes above it. I point the exhaust out and run it without removing it from the bed. I also have two co2(or whatever bad gas) detectors for safety.
Kipor IG3000 3000-Watt Generator Inverter
This runs my 13,00 btu ac, but only on high generator setting. The AC usually will not start if the generator is on ECO mode.
I also had to add a hard start kit to my AC, to get it to start reliability.
I very seldom run my AC with this setup, usually I just need to charge the batteries.
These days, I have 300 watts of solar and do not even need it for charging. One day I might get one of those small 1,000 watt Honda generators also.
