Just tried my new honda 2000 out that I got in January! It ran both my carrier 11,500 a/c on low cool and my frig while still on econo mode!!!! Yea me!!!! And I can store it in my empty gen compartment.
scotto, the Honda's are nice little units. I have two of them and parallel them together. I would get an a/c voltage meter to plug into your camper so you can see what's going on. The Honda sounds like it is doing fine now, but things change when you go up in elevation or the converter/battery charger kicks in. With a meter you can tell what is going on all the time and would enable you to avoid any low voltage situations from too many current draws on the genny. Camping world sells this one pretty cheap. a/c votage meter

I also twin mine when running a/c, but have used one to run the 13,500 btu a/c. The single gen was able to keep the voltage up. I had to run the fridge on gas an reduce other loads.

my new eu2000i i bought in feburary ran my 13,500 btu ac no problem and the tv and lights too. its gotta go to the shop for repair already though. wont run without the choke on?
When the gen won't run unless the choke is on means that the jets are a bit clogged....just put some carb cleaner through it and use Stabil in the fuel when storing.
