I chose the larger 2000 model since I had hoped it would also help cool my entire RV, which it seems it will greatly assist if not accomplish on it's own. I didn't look at watt usage since it's directly hookup to the batteries (not through inverter) and primarily looked at amp hours. On ECO model, it states it will use about 180amp hours in 10 hours use (overnight sleeping) and I've got 300amp hours of BattleBorn batteries.....Getting final wiring done after the holiday and will "test" it in the driveway and overnight.
A lot of the Outer Banks, NC campgrounds do NOT have hookups, and don't allow generators run after 10pm (good luck sleeping in the heat).....so my goal was to have cool air overnight if I am down there and it's hot. Plus, just get tired of hearing the generator rattling along, but, I kept that system in place just in case I have battery issues or Murphy's Law..........
