RecPro RV A/C
I’m looking at the RecPro 9.5K low profile A/C. I have never heard of them. Does anyone have any experience with them, or heard anything about them? Thank you. https://www.recpro.com/rv-air-cond...

For a quick test, I borrowed a friends Honda EU2000i to see if it would start and run my RecPro Houghton A2801 9.5K air conditioner which has a Microair EasyStart installed. The Honda EU2000i started and ran the air conditioner with no obvious hesitation from the AC or the generator. This test was done with Eco-mode turned off. I did not try to start the air conditioner with the EU2000i with Eco-mode turned on. Even though I did successfully start and run the AC using my EU2200i with Eco-mode turned on, I did that only as a test and I do not normally run it that way because I do not know how the response time of the Eco-mode compares to, or affects, the starting surge of the air conditioner.
Test conditions were:
* Camper batteries fully charged, Everything other than the AC was turned off. The Progressive Industries EMS-HW30C showed 0 amps with AC turned off, showed 8 amps with AC on with low speed fan, and showed 9 amps with AC on with high speed fan.
* Sunny and 77 degrees
* 770 feet elevation
This gives me some confidence that my 2200 will be good at a higher elevation and higher ambient temperatures
