Now, I have to come back to this topic. I did not get a generator as I thought I would because I was lucky to get power when I was there, but at Sherwood, during the full season, there is no possible way to get power. You either do without or get a generator.
My question is, what size continuous running (not peak) would I need to get if I'm using a computer, Dometic fridge, lights, water pump, and the propane furnace in the trailer (17,000 BTUs). I will load juggle carefully, like not running the range fan and furnace at the same time, the hair dryer and furnace at the same time, etc.
I'm looking at a propane model. Couple of them that I want to decide on. I'm not crazy about buying a large generator because I need to be able to move it myself.
