Generator(s) for my 3150

[edmojenks]

Excuse me if this question has been asked 1,000 times, but I did a search and couldn't find anything recent.

I bought a 2010 Montana 3150 a month ago and love it. Now, its time to buy a generator or a pair of generators for it. My main uses for a generator will be when we tail gate at LSU football games or when we happen to need it at a RV park with no hookups. We go to all LSU football games so we would, for sure, need AC, TV and lights. The AC alone requires 13 amps. I have looked at the Honda EU2000i, that provides only 13.3 amps so that obviously is not enough power. So, I looked at pairing that with the 2000i companion. That doubles the power output, but I am still in the mid 20 amp range. I have added up the AC, a few lights and TV and that would give me just enough power by the way I am figuring this. One question, am I figuing this wrong? I simply added the rated amps for each unit together to get the compbined amp rating. I then added together the items I know I would be using. Also, since one of these units is rated at 59db, does that mean the noise output of two of these would be double that?

I would prefer something I can hand carry, and at age 56 that is getting lighter and lighter. The Honda 3000i is about the max. I want to hand carry (77 lbs.), but it delivers only 21.7 amps. That seems just barly enough for my needs as described above.

I don't want a build in. I want portable.

Also considering the Yamaha in the 6300 to 6600 range that will give me ample power, but then you are getting to the 200 lb. weight barrier.

What do you experienced Rvers suggest.
