Professor, I have the Champion3500 and have the orange adaptor
shown in picture. I have only tested it to see how it would run
my 15,000 btu A/C.(worked ok) What sort of dangerous situation
could occur? Thanks in advance.
My answer was:
Would a very good possibility of supplying 220 volts rather than 110 volts to your camper be enough reason to not use it? All it takes is a fault path that often exists in generator to RV circuits.
To Overhill7:
I believe I spoke too quickly when I gave you the above answer. After going back and looking at the images of the Champion unit I noticed that it has two 120 volt outlets. One is a twistlock and the other a duplex. As such, the duplex is most likely wired as a single circuit outlet. This would make it safe to use the "orange" adapter. In any event, to be sure, inspect the outlet as I described a few messages down to see if it is split or connected.
Sorry if I caused any confusion.
