After following this site since about page 50, i bought a Champion(and a 31' Jayco Designer 5er). We took them both out last weekend for their inaugural debut.... We were camping at about 5600' and everything was going great until the ac kicked on....
I found that if anything else was on (ceiling fan, tv, radio...etc) and the ac pump kicked on, the gen would bog down and die. i had to find the perfect dance of turning items on one at a time, after the ac was on, to keep the gen running smooth. once everything was up and running the gen purred for several hours with no issues.
im wondering if it is the altitude, too much load, or a combination? does anyone else have to go through a ritual to get everything running smooth or am i doing something wrong?
