After the Professor's lenthly explanation regarding running old motors with portable generators, would it be possible to get the proud owners of a new "RV Ready" Campion generator to report their findings as to whether or not they had difficulty running their A/C with it, and to specify the age of the unit(MH/Trailer)? Actual field experience may be an invaluable tool for those of us with older RVs who are still undecided about this particular generator. Any replies will be greatly appreciated.
Professor:
What I do not understand very well is, why is it that running the A/C from a 15 amp branch circuit is no problem(I tested it, the A/C starts right up), but it may be an issue from a portable generator that puts out 29 amps out of the RV outlet. If the "kick in the pants" is the amps, it seems the generator has plenty to offer.
