Can this generator power up a RV air conditioner of 13500 btu?

You need to see how many amps the a/c is using then multiply that by 120 to see the watts required to run the a/c. I would not recommend this if the watts are within the range of 1500 or higher. Im guessing it is, which means the generator will be running at full power and will shorten the life of the generator. I would recommend a generator that produces minimum of 2800 watts

I can only say it definitely will run your air conditioner. Mine works very good with air conditioner, electric water heater, refrigerator and any other electric that I have on. I can only guess the choke may have not been opened. 30 amps is surely enough for a small trailer. Wish I could give more help, as it sure should not overload.

Don't think so.your generator at that wattage should have a 30 amp twist on it I would think

It should be good to go. I use mine to keep my camp trailer lights, microwave running, refrigerator and video system all at the same time. With all that the 20 amp circuit breaker has never kicked off. It will not run my air conditioner which pulls 30 amps. This has been my experience with my unit. Champion has another model which will support 30 amps but I believe it weights more and is a more expensive unit. However, these generators are hard to beat for the price.

It's rated at 18000 btu, does a great job. I installed this unit in an uninsulated race trailer on a 20 amp circuit with no issue. It is easily ran by a 3000 watt generator. Great air flow

Yes but you need to talk to an electrician about amperage demand and make sure you have enough propane to supply your needs spend the extra money and go larger if you want to power your hvac the generator will last longer

If the 15 amp device is something big to start, It will not.I cant use my 15 amp compressor (Ridgid) using this 3500 W Champion Generator.

I sent the generator back because it would not run my air conditioner on my travel trailer

Typically AC is not added to this generator. It's not powerful enough. We don't have our AC connected to it...only essential appliances such as freezer, fridge, heat and TV. I guess you would have to get a bigger generator if you wanted AC on it. Hope this helps.

I am not sure. I purchased the generator as a Christmas gift for my daughter and her husband.

I am not sure how much power this can handle. It does work with my 55,000 BTU heater which draws (as far as I know) 10 amps (to run the pump/fan).I suspect it would work, as long as you don't have to do anything to the heater to get it to turn on after you plug it in. If you have to turn on a switch/push a button/etc. after plugging in the heater, this won't work since it's just like you unplugged your heater after the desired temperature was reached, and plugged it back in when it gets too cold.

Shouldn't be a problem, keep in mind that it has a single 120v single phase plug rated at 15a. So you'll to know what your generator output or indoor load will be...

If there is a "AC" version, I'm not aware of it as I never looked for one. My application is for a "DC" powered TurboKool for my RV.

If it is a 13,000 BTU air conditioner, it should work with the Champion 3100W.If it is a 15,000 BTU air conditioner, it will probably overload at A/C startup. Once the 3100W overloads, the generator has to be stopped to reset.

It depends on the size of the AC units, ie how many tons of cooling the units have. On my unit I have one large 5 ton AC unit and it works fine. Or I could have 2 smaller units on the generator. This is Wonderful unit and very quiet!

it might if it would actually start for you and run. Mine has been sitting in the field now for months after getting totally fed up with it.to answer your question about generator capacity in general, you need to simply add up the power usage labels on your equipment, and then compare it to the rated output of the generator. No one can answer your question above because there are many sizes of AC's, fridges, lights, etc. Only you can answer that question

You will not be able to run either the air conditioner or the microwave with the Go Power 120. The unit puts out about 6.7 amps of power an hour and is intended to charge your trailer's battery or batteries. It does a good job of this. But it provides only DC power, not the AC power required for an air conditioner or microwave.
