So is that starting watt or continuous? I use my 3600 SIE Boliy and operates my 15000btu ac. It is about as quiet as a Honda. Later RJD

In the manual for the a/c it just states minimum of 3500 watts.
I would say running watts but who knows.

Maybe I am missing something but my 30 amp camper only allows for a 3600 watt pull (120v x 30a). So that being said, if the a/c wants 3500 watts that doesn't leave a very big margin for other electronics. All this assuming your talking about a 13.5k unit.
