generator

Hello....I have an Onan QG 3600 LP on a 2016 Forester 2401R that is having intermittent power issues. I'd like to check the connection from the generator to the RV itself, but cannot find the location. I'm not sure if its a plug or hardwired or what. I absolutely cannot find any information on...

Has anyone figured out a good rule of thumb or found a good guide on trying to estimate what the power consumption is of the NoBo electric items? Have the solar package (1 panel on top), two regular deep cycle batteries, 12V Fridge, microwave oven, A/C. 2022 NoBo 19.8. Mainly looking for what...

Hello all, I have a 2016 Thor Challenger. My generator seems to only cut on after I’ve turned the ignition on for awhile. Sometimes it’ll turn on, other times it won’t. It’s almost like it’s waiting for the ignition battery to charge the generator. Is that possible? Has anyone else had this...

I purchased the 2023 Thor Rize 18A back in march so everything is under warranty, but service turnover is horrible here in san diego. My issue is that my 2x100ah agm house batteries are no longer being charged by my generator. The generator no longer automatically enables the 110v inverter so...

Hey Campers, I will be doing some boondocks this summer. Our 100w solar will not keep up with our battery demands so I bought an 1800w inverter generator. I am looking for the fastest and most efficient way to recharge the battery. Am I best to plug the trailer into the generator or I have...

Took our rig - (2018 Isata 5 36DS) to get the tires aligned / rebalanced and left the refrigerator on (checked and nothing else on). When we got back, we hooked up to our 50A but forgot to throw the breaker to on so the coach sat there for a 24 hour period without power. Next day, realized we...

HELP! Connected our Firman 11,400/9200w gas-powered generator to check out compatibility with our TT and can’t get it to start: gen battery is good, it has fuel, the starter seems good, but it simply won’t start. We were advised NOT to use ethanol and as I’ve gone through the troubleshooting...

Background: I own a 32 ft. class C Forrest River SunSeeker 2018 built on a 2017 Ford E-450. See the photos attached for my electric components. Issue: I had my RV hooked to shore power for a year. No issue. The Fridge was running during this time and I ran the generator a couple of times for...

We have a coachman 208bhs with a 13.5k btu ac. I'd like to know if I can run the unit without the help of a softstart.or easystart system on a Champion generator. The unit is 2850w start and 1850running. Would this be sufficient?

I have the factory Go Power 100w solar install, but when I push the AC button on the panel to enable the inverter I still don't get AC... only if the generator is running. 12v switch is on, display lit on the GP-PWM-30-UL solar controller, batteries at 100% and the indicator lights up saying...

Getting ready for a trip, actually first trip in our 2023 Europa. While disconnected from shore, when I run generator everything is fine. At the point I shut it down there is a 1-2 second cycle in power. The firefly screen turns off and back on, but the inverter/charger turns off and remains...

I have a Dynamax isata 3, 2022, had it since October 2022, when I turn the generator on and let it run a little bit when I turn on the air conditioner it runs a little bit then shuts the generator off, generator show 13.9 Short Circuit!, the other issue is the propane, it has been working have...

I have a Forester 2371TS with the Onan QG 2500 LP generator. Getting ready for a trip and checking systems and the Generator has no 12V power anywhere. The switch in the control panel has no power, the generator has no 12V at the generator either. I have checked the large breaker in the...

Hello all. Just wondering if any fellow 4k Onan owners have had their genie's serviced and what the cost was. Having mine done on Wednesday 3/22. Is it easy to reset the Lippert one control pad. Mine currently says to service the generator. I have no issues currently I start it monthly and run...

I just bought a new 2023 Sunseeker 2440DS. Put her in storage for a preplanned vacation. I shut off the master power switch in the house. When I got back from the vacation I drove to the storage area to pick up the RV to continue getting her ready for use. There was a ticking sound coming...

Anyone using one of these on their trips?

I am ordering a new 2023 Riverstone Legacy 39RBFL and I have my own Cummins 5500 LP generator. They say it comes generator prepped. Does this mean it comes with the frame that the generator mounts to or do I have to take frame out of my Heartland Bighorn the generator came out of ??

Just got the March coupon booklet from Costco. Firman 4000W dual fuel inverter generator on sale. Ad says $200 off but their webpage lists this model at $849.99. Other sites list it at much more. Seems a good deal if you are in the market.

Been searching but can't find my answer, appreciate any guidance you can provide. Our new Solitude 310GK came without a generator, and I need one. I think the 'standard' generator that GD factory installs is something like the Onan 5500, but they're essentially impossible to source right now...

I read a bunch of threads before deciding on and purchasing a Westinghouse IGEN4500 4500 /3500. Tried to comment on one of the threads but it is too old so here is my new post. Dual fuel Inverter It is arriving tomorrow and I will get it set up and broken in before we use it in April.

First post. Normally lurk. Will try and be clear with details up front. Hope it’s not a repeat but I didn’t see a clear answer. Second owner of 2016 Georgetown 378TS. Generator is on. No shore power at the moment. Lights, A\C / heating system, and refrigerator are all working fine. No power on...

Noticed this issue on an older post re: Generator Oil Change - Europa. Our access door used to open on our ISATA 5 28SS. But, sure enough there has been some shifting and not so much access anymore. I was more concerned with the root cause behind a shifting 420 lbs generator. IMHO, not much...

My LiFePO4 conversion of my campers took a lower priority when the “too cold” to work outside weather hit. My daughter up’d the priority when she asked me about boat access only no power available camping this summer. My priority for boondocking is my cpap. Luckily my...

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

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 -...
