When it looks like rain, I put it under my 5th wheel nose. I purchased the unit because we dry camp and needed something to supplement the solar panels.
This is exactly what I have. After researching this, Honda and Predator, I decided this was the best bang for my buck and will have no problem running one AC. I was told by several people the Predator wouldn’t run the AC without a soft start and that was an expense I did not want to have on top of the gen cost. They are coming out with a duel fuel model but you get more power from gas. I think I spent about $1400 after tax on it.
