Should I check voltage more the longer the unit runs?
Get an autoformer instead.
Far better than this, just install a 30 amp circuit to the location of your trailer!! Do you really want to burn down your house to keep your trailer cool???:S
15 amp circuits run on 14 gauge wire 30 amp run on 10 gauge wire, for the cost of the Autoformer you could have the correct circuit installed for the trailer.
Something else to think about the greater the distance the cable is the greater the voltage drop, so if it 50' from your breaker box to the outlet a veavy draw on 14 gauge wire is very bad.
