Smallest AC that a Honda 2000 will Run?

Just sniffing around for AC units to eventually install on our NL which we will be getting in Feb.

I purposely did not order one, factory installed as I have heard (from more than one source), that manufacturers buy AC's by the truck load and of course, from whomever gives then the best price.
I don't think the manufacturers really give too much consideration as to whether a Honda 2000 will run their chosen AC.

I figured we would get a Polar Cub 9200, but now I'm reading that the newer ones are using more power than the older ones?.

Does anyone out there have a less than 2 yr old PC 9200 that they have run off of their Honda 2000 with no problems? Or anyone know of a small brand new model that will work?
  • Keep in mind that they lose about 3% power for each 1000 feet of elevation. Can make a big difference in the mountains. 15% loss just at Denver.
  • I have read here a poster runs a Coleman Mach 3 PS (Power saver) on a 2000. Specs look like it should.
