I have a 2955RL and I use a 1,000w old Yamaha which at max continuous is rated at 800W. It will run our converter, a 40amp output unit, with a few near stalls when first started. The converter draws a big hit but within about 2 minutes the generator handles it fine.

You trailer likely has a somewhat larger converter. A 1,000w gen may not be too happy with a 60 or 80A converter upon initial startup.

However, once the initial high battery recharge settles down it should handle it fine as that high charge rate will drop off quickly.

A 2,000W gen. should do just fine, even better.

Let it run a while, 20 minutes, and then turn on the Fantastics.

You will not be able to run the a/c unit.

Run the fridge on the propane only.

Ensure the hot water tank is run on propane, not on electric or shut it off completely.

The Fantastics draw , I believe, about 2A each at 12volt at full tilt so the gen. will handle it fine. Just keep other loads to nothing.

In the evening the temps will drop.
