Hoss,

I already bought two inverters. I will be putting in a LPG standby generator for the house when I build it. I'm sure it will be upwards of 20kw by the time I calculate all my loads. I...

It's still 95 degrees outside. I hooked up both generators to the Champion parallel kit and then started them up, turned off eco-mode, and plugged in the Montana. I came inside and turned the AC...

I went with the 200987 model. When I clicked "buy" on Amazon, they were $678.02 each. The dual fuel was over $1000 each. For as often as I'd actually use the propane to power it (rarely), it...

The two Champion 4500's were delivered today along with the parallel kit. I will be unboxing them soon and trying them out while it's still 100 degrees out to see if they can run both AC's.

More reading and research I think I'm ready to buy. I'm looking at the Champion 4500w enclosed inverter generators. Two of those and Champion's 50A parallel kit should let me run pretty much like...

That's the one I was talking about earlier. It's on my radar.

However, I like the idea of running two parallel inverter generators. I've used (but I don't own yet) the Predator 3500w inverter...

Their 9500 watt inverter generator is $2400 and it doesn't have a 50A plug on it. They make a 8750 watt inverter generator for $1300 but it also doesn't have a 50A plug.





I can't really...

That's a lot more than a little bit more, but I see your point.

I found a Westinghouse WGen9500DF (dual fuel) for $1150 that has a 50A plug on it. It would work just fine, I think. There's a...

Looking for a generator

We've been living in our 350QBQ for about 1.5 years now. It is parked on my parents' farm while we wait to get stuff in order to build a house. We're tied into their house power/water/septic. We...

I have seriously considered it. I have a buddy a couple hours away who has a 2008 F450 with a B&W turnover gooseneck hitch already, so I'd just need the companion 5th wheel part to make his truck...

An interesting thought:


I was curious if Zone 1 was considered the bunkhouse or not. It seems as though, it is. Since the inside temperature for the furnace ONLY reads Zone 1 and the...

I know it is capable. I'm unsure of the numbers game, however. Does exceeding 26,000# GCVW matter? A crew cab dually diesel with people, stuff, and fuel in it could easily weigh over 10,000# and...

TV selection help

I recently bought a 350QBQ. I'm new to RVs in general unless you count my 1986 Coleman Sequoia popup that I rebuilt a couple years ago. I do not have a tow vehicle for it and the sellers delivered...

Thermostat problem?

I'm pretty new to RV's. In December we listed our house for sale with no real plans of where to move, just a future idea of building on my parents' farm about 20 miles away. To our surprise, we had...
