generator

I am looking for ideas on a DIY generator box. It would house a Westinghouse 4500W dual fuel inverter. The generators dimensions are 24.5L x 17.5W x 20H

To those running your generator all day to “recharge the batteries,” do you ever wonder why other nearby RVs don’t need to do this? Pro tip: if you don’t dip your deep cycle batteries below 50%, they will last a lot longer and not require that daily gas-powered boost. Sincerely, Someone who...

I believe I may be in the right church, but possibly the wrong pew. If so, please relocate it. My cousin has an older (not antique) Class A which is junk, and he has removed the engine. The inside is in a shambles etc. However, I believe it has a good generator on it. I should be able to get...

I'm once again knee-deep in a rabbit hole. I'm trying to choose a generator, as a backup, & I just can't decide. I chose a dual-zone Sennville mini split(9k bedroom/9k front), a residential fridge, & all the other usual amenities for my Skoolie. After researching with other Skoolie owners, I've...

hi all, where do you all mount a generator on your Micro Minnie? I am thinking above the propane tanks but not sure that with it mounted there it will cause a problem with turn radius with my van and trailer. I thought about the rear bumper as the Gen is like 90 pounds but the spare tires is...

Hopefully this won't be a duplicate. I had one completed and when I went to post found I had been logged out and appears I lost the message after logging in. First common issue with 36 error generator runs for varying amount of time. But my issue appears to be a bit different than the ones...

after 2 years of full time, we removed our generator. we never in two years used it. it was not that difficult. less weight without it, will make a storage compartment out of the space it occupied. we are almost always boondocking, no hook ups. there is a good YouTube video on how to -...

Has anyone installed this AGS in a rogue 4007? Also is there somewhere you can get a wiring diagram of the rig? I can not find the Can Bus that needs to plug into that. I have the Yamaha NPS in my hauler.

I currently have 2 Honda EU2000s which are about 4 years old. I use them in parallel to run my Outback 301 UBH. The companion gen (the one with the 30amp plug for the camper) is in need of repair, it will not take a load and stops running. This is getting me thinking about changing to a...

Good day I have a new 2022 cardinal luxury 390 FBX that has a “ gen Prep”. This includes a transfer switch and a generator box in the front storage bay. I have ordered an Onan QG 5500 lp for this unit. My question is: The dealership tells me that if the gen box is installed then there is no...

Hello friends, I hope I am asking in the right section of the forum. We have a 2011 Forest River Toy hauler, second owners since 2016, it was like new then and almost like new still. Didn't get used a lot and now we want to travel more and upgrade to a newer rv and not a toy hauler this time...

Bear with me I’ll make this as short as possible, but I want to give you as much information as well to help me with this diagnosis, to avoid extraneous rabbit hole options… THE BACKSTORY:  We were away off grid, and running the generator which is a 2018 Onan 4000.  It has been...

Most of the time we have only been camping off grid for no more than 3 days. In the off grid parks where we camp there is not much sun so solar is not a good option. But where we love to camp the most it is beautiful and peaceful in the forest campsites we love the best. I hate the sound of...

I have a 2016 Wolf Pack with an intact generator compartment (no generator). There is a 4 square box that is for generator wiring near the compartment. I'm hoping that there is 30 amp wiring in the box. I'm a little - ha, a lot - too large to crawl into the storage compartment to check it...

I'm very curious about these. There are kits from Hutch Mountain and a company called Grenergy and both of them have glowing reviews on YouTube. I'm not quite sure of the difference between the two (they look identical) and I was curious if any of you folks have done such a conversion. I know...

Got a Wen generator last year and it won't work with our Hughes 30 Auotperformer EPO, states loss of ground. Ran a wire from ground lug on front of generator to trailer frame, no luck. Sawed off a household ground rod and drove into earth and ran wire to gen ground lug, no luck. Is there some...

Try a set one of these. I have and they work to let you know anywhere that the rig is without 110V except to the extent of the inverter. Only question is - do we have a single power point that is not inverter powered? https://gfinotify.com/

I recently resolved a situation where the onboard generator stopped supplying power to my coach. I thought'd I'd post my experience here and IRV2.com for others that may experience similar issues. Background: This occurred on a 2021 Winnebago Adventurer 29B that I've owned since June, 2021. In...

We have a 2017 Georgetown 364ts - while running the generator (Onan 5500), a spark plug blew out of the spark plug hole while connected to the spark plug wire and it was blowing all around clanging and clacking and making a racket then the generator died. Hubby tried to re-thread the threads in...

I am considering a conversion of my 2 Honda 2000s to propane. One concern is fuel consumption on propane compared to gasoline. I have been told that they’re different size jets for the propane, so do you need to change jets at higher altitudes like carbs on gas? Any suggestions on conversion...

Hello, I am considering purchasing the Stromberg Carlson CC-255 generator mount for my travel trailer. My only concern is that with all of the electrical components including the Giggy box on the “driver side“ of the tongue I’m not sure I will have clearance to mount the bracket for the...

Help have a 22 keystone raptor 352 has built in gas generator. Every month I start it and let it run this month it does not start after prime it just clicks that’s all . Battery is charged and have been in full power since lived in have only had this 3 months . Please help

Hello all, New RVer here. I just bought a used 2018 2106fbs micro minnie travel trailer. The batteries that came with it are pretty shot out lol. It currently has two 6-volt flooded batteries on the tongue of the trailer. They were dry and don't hold a charge very long. My husband and I are...

So, I just saw an FR3 yesterday with an inverter generator that wasn't an Onan. I've always wondered why rvs didn't use inverters. If you have one of these new ones, what's your experiences with it?

Greetings, Curious if anyone has had a Honda generator with the metal security handle stolen ? The Honda generator handle is a security weakness so Honda offers a metal handle cover that is supposed to increase its security. But its put on by "security" screws, and the metal doesn't look...
