RV ready ? yet no 240 volts... uhm, no

RV plugs are commonly 120v 30A...this generator has that receptacle.

This is an awesome generator for an RV. If you need 50amp you will need two and the parallel kit.

Quiet. Powerful. Great on gas.

Don't hesitate to buy.

I have the dual fuel version of this which unfortunately is not on sale (holy crap, it's $999 right now). It's a beast, and definitely powerful enough to run quite a few things in the event of a power outage----even a portable AC or window unit with some wattage to spare.

This is a heck of a price for a inverter generator with 3500 running watts.

Champion generators are very quiet as I own two. Now and again I run them parallel…they usually start on first pull. Run non-ethanol in them and turn of fuel and run dry EVERY TIME.

Just keep in mind that a lot of people get two honda 2200s and run them in parallel for RV use just because two lighter gens are easier to lift that one of the 4500s. Obviously, the cost is a lot higher.

Two different beasts. The Home Depot has way more power (double) but isn't an inverter generator.
Meaning:
A: the Home Depot unit is way way way louder
B: its power output will fluctuate and can potentially damage your more sensitive equipment like electronics or an RV power management system

Inverter generators run the fluctuating power output of a generator through an inverter to provide cleaner more consistent power.
Because they're used for rv's camping etc and around people they're also insulated making them much much quieter. Standard generators are for construction sites and low rent food trailers at this point.

So if those are your two options, the champion is a vastly better choice as long as your needs are 4500w and not 9000w.

I was going to pull the trigger on a HD deal but your post has me reconsidering for the quiet factor. Would 3500w be sufficient for 2 freezers and a windshield ac unit? My research points to us but would appreciate more knowledgeable opinions.

I have the tri fuel 9000 watt which is on sale as well. It's such a beast. Runs my entire house including 3-ton AC and I haven't seen it go over 50% power usage on the generator. It's also running 1500 watt dehumidifier and sump pump at the same time.

Does the parallel kit give you 240v?

I was looking at this last year but it was 1700 when it first came out so I went with the Costco Firman. I wish I had waited.
