The 2200, will not run my Coleman Mach 15k. It'll start it in the eco mode, although it's a big hiccup. After about 10 minutes, the compressor kicked out. The Genny ran at its top rpm, for the entire 10 minutes
I reconnected both Gennys in Parallel, and waited 5 minutes. I started both Gennys, and then the AC. The AC ran w/o issue, while I tinkered in the TT.
Temp on top of the trailer, was probably approaching 100, even though it was not in the sun.
I had a 2000 already, so I only needed another 2000 or 2200 companion, and the Parallel kit.
If you watch your local Craigslist and the Classifieds here, you may find a complete set up for $1800 or so. Sometimes when people get out of the bidness of camping, or upgrade to a self contained RV complete with a generator, they sell the setup they had been using.
I saw one set locally for $1700(2-2k's, parallel kit, and an extended run tank)that was up for about a day or so on CL before it was gone, so you have to be ready to get em when you see em. The tank setup and Parallel kit can run close to $200. God always makes sure I pay full price, whether I'm bargain shopping, or paying the consequences. Lol
A little detail I missed, is the Honda Companions(which come with the 30amp outlet) use a 30amp Marine style twist lock outlet. My TT pig tail, has a regular 3 leg 30amp male end. I had to run to the store and pickup an adapter.
You can order the Parallel kit with the adapter.
