Thanks for the help. I plan to buy either the Champion or a Honda. I only camp a total of about 25 days a year so if I can get away with the Champion and saving $600 I will. After all of this reading I don't know if the Honda would be any better for my situation anyway.

Not sure what this means.
I would like to power the trailer and the charger at the same time.
If I disconnect the converter am I going to loose 12V within the trailer, lights water pump, etc.?
If I just disconnect the batteries is the converter still going to draw too much from the generator?

Added note, the power factor on my Shumacher is 0.8.
I don't understand how PF relates to charging and the generator.
Do you mind explaining this a bit, in layman's terms? Use props if you have to. :)
Maybe I should start a new thread as I am getting off of the CPE 2000i Generator topic.
