Keystone RV Forums - View Single Post - light weight generator for battery charging

B-O-B'03 · 09-27-2020, 05:10 PM

I have a Champion 2800/3100 inverter generator, that I bought in 2015.

I still starts on the first pull and has almost 250 hours run time on it.

It will start & run the 15K BTU AC unit in our camper as well as run the inside & outside fridges and the converter to charge the batteries.

We had a couple of power outages at the house recently ( 10 hours and 23.5 hours) and I used it to run the fridge in the house, the fridge and deep freeze in the garage as well as all the TVs, cable boxes, sound systems and some lighting.

I paid $600 for it at Costco and that included delivery.

I like having just one generator to service and fuel.
