Okay Cap, 25 amps per leg, continuous. With both ACs running that doesn't leave a lot of room for coffeemaker, microwave, converter, lights, TV, pump, refrigerator, ice maker, fans, etc. Especially dicey if one, or both, ACs start at the same time.

No problem with synchronizing generators since the circuits are normally in phase (like when you're feeding them from a 30 amp service) or out of phase (when you're feeding them from a 50 amp service). They only share neutral, but you'd better make sure they are properly grounded (to each other and to physical ground).

Of course, you're out of luck if you should happen to need 220.

You are potentially running 50+ amps on the neutral, so make sure the power cable is properly sized (no problem if you're using the 50 amp cord set).

BUT, try it before you get on the road. There are always gremlins.
