[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3688808, member: 5412"] Ok, lets drill down to the tear drop trailer you're going to be building. Primarily boondocking but the occasional RV park? If that is the case, you will need to be rv park compliant in your electrical needs. Most likely 110v or 230v with proper connectors. Loads like refrigerators and AC that have a high input start load unless equipped with a soft start will stall and stop a smaller generator. In a tear drop rv, you will likely be equipped with an apartment sized fridge that has a very low startup load so you don't need a mega generator. We have two of the 2300 watt peak, 1800 watt rated Powerhorse generators in our RV. They have an adaptor that allows them to parallel for a higher rating with an RV acceptable receptacle. We ran lights, and the fridge during the big freeze in Tx this last January with a single unit in our big RV. Your teardrop would have zero issues running this unit and it's quiet. We bought two because in parallel, we can start and run the AC if we get a power outage in a hot zone. Quiet 52dB noise level Less than 1.5% total harmonic distortion safely runs sensitive electronics with no interruptions or disturbances 80cc OHV engine 100% copper-wound heads allow operation at full load continuously for weeks without overheating Variable engine speed and Engine Smart Control system help reduce fuel consumption and noise by using only required engine power [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.northerntool.com/shop/tools/product_200788692_200788692[/URL] [/QUOTE]
