AFFILIATE LINK DISCLOSURE: Friends, making a quality Loloho video is kind of like making sausage – only slightly more violent. It’s a ridiculous amount of work that typically involves high dollar camera drops, blue-screen-of-death computer crashes, and at least one angry shotgun wielding old man shouting, “Hey! Get the hell outta here!” Once the final video is posted, rewards here on YouTube are few and far between (unless you are a masochist who enjoys being verbally abused by anonymous trolls). One saving grace is our affiliate links. JUST CLICKING THESE LINKS HELPS TO SUPPORT OUR LITTLE SHOW. Think of this clicking as like tipping – except that it doesn’t cost you anything extra! If you eventually make a purchase via one of our affiliate links, we will receive a few pennies (and Sean typically invests these pennies in duct tape and video gear). Again, it doesn’t cost you anything to click these links, and it’s a great help to us. As always, safe travels, happy camping, and THANK YOU!

Champion makes open frame inverter generators now. Pretty solid and not too loud.
She is Hotter then a tin roof in the middle of a Texas July.
Looks like Champion has moved to a 4K watt machine now. Thoughts?
Wen now has a new one out that is dual fuel that runs on propane and then when the propane runs out, it automatically switches to gas for longer run times! I thought that was pretty cool. It's the wen 4000 inverter generator. Might not fit under your cover though 😉
How come? You and the wife comment on numerous generators, however I have never heard a word, good or bad, in reference to Harbor Freight's Predator branded generators and inverters. No less than Consumer Reports rated them quite highly. Many, many real world users, including RVR's consider the brand to be exceptionally reliable, and a good value for their $$$.
Solar verses Generator. Bicycle verses Motorcycle.
Given the price, racket, and fuel expense, what about having a lot of solar and lithium batteries?
Thanks for all of your helpful info!
i will get one……thanks
Has anyone compared the champions to the predators from harbor freight?
Great video. What are your thoughts on a Firman 3K generator. Not sure if you7 have them in the Sates or not but there here in Canada. Any opinion would be great. Love your vids.
Just bought the 3500 predator super quiet and will run our air conditioner. We live in a very humid area during the summer. Great info,thank you!
I recommend the Harbor Freight Predator 3500. We have a similar trailer and we love the predator. It's super quiet, has pure inverter power, electric start and sips fuel while providing a constant 25 amps with more for starting power. We paid $699 for ours. I've been seeing lots of videos here on youtube showing how people have been getting lots of trouble free hours with the Predator. Zero problems with ours now for 3 years. Others have more hours than ours has.
Great video I just posted it on my FB. They used to have a website just for generators but I went looking and couldn't find it is it still around?
I will be buying a generator soon and I have a question about where to set it when running it ,especially since I can not afford for the "generator to sprout legs" and walk away or to get drenched in the rain or snow. I will be traveling in an enclosed "rv" of some kind. They say not to run a generator in an enclosed space or you will die. Ok , how is a generator that comes with rvs vented so that you do not die ?
Very helpful and informative. Well purchase thru your link. Thanks 🙏🏼
Honda and Yamaha are not the best anymore!!! Onan has been producing some off brand portable generator that will compete with these name brands!
predator 3500!!!
I been hearing good things about the HF predator 3500. Have you researched it?
Thank you!. Such useful info!
I have what may be a stupid question but I'm old so it's ok! If I run 2 ea 2000 watt generators in parallel to start a 3500 watt RV ac unit, can I simply unplug one of them after I have started the ac unit and continue running the ac unit on just one generator or have to keep both generators running the whole time??
So many generators to choose from. We have a champion inverter generator wired up in a very interesting way ! Thanks for the great videos !!

I really had no need for a generator before. I did add a 5,000 btw a/c because I didn't want to limit my travel to just cool places or places with electricity. I just bought a Champion 2500 watt inverter generator. Running the a/c hardly fazes it. I do have a small electric heater, that does increase the idle speed, but not too much. So I think it will work fine for heating and cooling!
Brilliant noob food! Thank you Sean an Kristy.
Question: Given the weight of the Dual Fuel Champion 3100W generator, is it feasible/practical/safe to run it from the back of our tow vehicle (pick-up truck) with the tonneau cover open? What about with tonneau cover closed? Thanks.
I have an open frame Generac 5500 watt generator for home backup. Damn thing is rock concert loud.
Are there such a thing as a sound shield to lower the sound level?
We were looking at champions, duel fuel, but came across the harbor freight predator 3500 inverter generator. Runs the whole trailer. AC and microwave no problem. What are your experiences or thoughts?I'd love to pick your brain on this. I have over 800hrs on mine.
You say that open framed ones will make enemies so to use inverter generators. I have seen open framed inverter generators. Rypbi makes one that is advertised at 67 decibels. How do you feel about those?
I bought that champion dual fuel a couple years ago. Had it 4 months and the carburetor went out and had to be replaced. It had a 1year warranty so I figured no problem. problem. Come to find ou
Great video, I have a question, we are looking at a 5th wheel that has a 50amp cord, can we go from 50amp to 30amp plug? And will that work with the generator? thanks
3500 watt predator works for us, always in back of f250, ready to go.
Any thoughts on the latest version of the Yamaha EF2200iS? It piqued my interest because it has an RV 30A plug and also can be connected in parallel. No electric or remote start, though.
Bucket list
I'm planning on running a TIG welder, split heat pump, fridge, microwave, gaming computer and using a possibly Honda 2200 to supplement solar covering the ENTIRE roof….I like a challenge
Been Following you guys for year(s), You were my first RV Channel I binge watched when I got into RVing.
Thank you for the information. We just had our first boon docking experience and, thanks to information you guys are willing to share in your videos, we made it through just fine. We knew what to buy and what to do and had a great trip. We really appreciate you guys taking the time to share like you do. Subscribed and excited for more!
Can you program more than one vehicle in. Say my truck with fifth wheel and just the truck?
I'm looking to chain a solar to a duel fuel and use the solar as the primary silent supply.
Saw a video that showed how to cut decibels by a lite weight box that can be used for open frame or closed frame! Also keeps it out of the rain!
Ok dumb newbie question…what is difference between an inverter generator and regular generator and why do you need one over the other for RV life? Just asking for a friend
