I was wondering if anybody had experience with putting gas generators into small boxes. I have a box truck conversion RV that has a tool box attached underneath the side. This box seems to work perfectly to house the generator and protect it from t...
Image LinkHello! We’re currently working on an RV conversion project and are gearing up to install electricity. Since we do a mix of boondocking and campsite camping where we have power access, I’m looking for a system that will compliment both. It a...
Thanks for all the responses. The pull out tray is an interesting idea. The main issue is that the generator barely fits inside, which means I have to squeeze it in by sliding the top in first and turning the generator partly sideways. Because of ...
Thanks a ton everyone for your responses,especially to shooted for sharing his build and to 12thgenusa who summed up the benefits of the CAM switch really well. We're going to go ahead and move forward with the CAM switch. Maybe as we grow our rig we...
Thanks Brian! Yes! The CAM switch is set up so that the converter is never run off the inverter. Since the circuit is never closed when the inverter is selected, it makes it more idiot proof. I originally had an auto transfer switch set up between th...
Thanks for the reply Pianotuna! The reason we didn't go with the 50amp is partly because our generator has a 30amp plug straight into it, as well as the fact that we really don't foresee needing that much power at once. Most everything we've purchase...
Thanks for the response Gdetrailer! We looked into the option regarding the inverter with the transfer switch/built in charger. We already have an inverter though that does not have the internal charger/transfer switch, and don't want to put out the ...
