S.Dreamer,
You seem willing to share all your knowledge of Champion and Sam's Club. This Inverter has been on the market for about a month now with no 'It's a marvel reports' Maybe you can pass along some knowledge as to real facts. What is the output in watts after 30 minutes. Maybe 1200w? Will two of them together operate a 13,500 btu A/C for more than 30 minutes on a Arizona 100 degree day? Howabout the noise. At full bore of 80cc @ 4000 plus rpm, is it as quiet as the Honda EU2000i? Do we have real competition with this New Champion Inverter to H & Y. If so, we will add to the CCC's less than quiet chant. I already belong.
BTW: Please don't leave us like several other posters after droping in and out with only two or three posts. Some came and went with less.:h
I'll share what I can when I get the first chance to test things. Between work, school and family my time is at a premium and I probably won't have time to really look at things for at least a few more weeks.
My family and I are on a lot of firsts here; our first trailer, our first generator and our first camping trip in 2-3 weeks (the plan as it stands today). As for the CPE 2000 unit - I know I took somewhat of a leap of faith based on overall CPE views on many boards. Considering the price of other units I was looking at (Kipor, Boliy and Yamaha) I'm hoping it works out. I will keep you posted on what I find.
P.S Without digging around and having not looked at the documentation for the unit - what is the easiest way most people determine power output for a generator? I have no experience with any other generator so I'm not sure I'll be able to help with the noise comparison except of my interpretation of how it sounds. I'll do my best though ;)
It should not be to time consuming or difficult to plug your new 2000w Champion Inverter into your TT. Congrat's on all your forth coming, hopefully happy travel days with all the new equipment. Have no fear, we are always here. Now, this is the momnent we have been waiting. The Micro test. Please take that leap of faith. As of now, I can not find one owner of the new Champion Inverter who will come on and say, hay, I have given it the mirco and the true 1600w test and all is well. With something like a P3 meter, only about $25. The idea is it must prove the test for more that 30 minutes. My Champion C46540 has a decrease of output after that period of time. Like operating the A/C with other loads. Anyway, it's the 'mirco test' many have been waiting. Either it will or it won't, cook my goose.
