Post by: johnestacado on December 19, 2020, 06:58:01 pm: I also turned off the generator, it really spoiled the sound. So I have my own camper for which I was looking for a generator but I can not determine exactly what size will suit me and what type of generator it will be. It's good that a friend recommended this article to me https://thetoolscout.com/what-size-generator-do-i-need-for-my-camper/ (https://thetoolscout.com/what-size-generator-do-i-need-for-my-camper/) and I was able to solve my problems quickly. Then I also watched video reviews on YouTube to decide on the manufacturer. So I chose Generac and was satisfied.
