Powerful, Portable Generators

A-iPower SUA2000i outlets

These A-iPower SUA2000i inverter generators combine to provide 3,800 watts of clean AC power to get you up and running whether you're at the campsite, worksite, or tailgate party. Each powerful generator comes with (1) 120V outlet for powering household appliances, tools, and electronic devices. They each feature (1) 120V L5-30R twist-lock outlet for large appliances and motorized tools with greater electrical demands. Lastly, they each include (1) 12V 8.3-amp DC outlet that charges automotive and marine batteries.


As an added convenience, each SUA2000i also includes a TT-30R adapter that lets you plug your RV into the generator's 120V 30-amp L5-30R twist-lock outlet. This ensures you'll have access to electricity no matter where you take your RV or if there's a power outage at the campground.


Finally, each compact unit weighs only 46 lbs and has a built-in ergonomic handle, making them easy to take with you no matter where you go.


Built-in Parallel Ability

A-iPower SUA2000i inverter generator has built-in parallel ability

Each SUA2000i comes equipped with parallel ability that lets you easily pair them with each other to produce 3,800 watts of power. By increasing the power output, you can run equipment with higher electrical demands. The included parallel connection cables simply plug into the corresponding ports on each generator's control panel. Because the parallel ability is built-in, you don't have to purchase a separate kit and remember to bring it with you.


Safe for Sensitive Electronic Devices

Electronic devices are made with delicate circuitry that requires steady, controlled electrical current. The current produced by standard generators, however, is uncontrolled, allowing extreme fluctuations in power. These fluctuations can damage your sensitive electronic devices. These generators, on the other hand, have built-in inverters that control the voltage that is produced. This important feature ensures each generator is safe to use with your electronic equipment such as cell phones, computers, and medical devices.


Easy-Start Engine

Each generator features a recoil handle that provides easy manual startup. They use standard unleaded gas, meaning there is no need to mix gas and oil.


Before starting your generator, ensure nothing is connected to the outlets. Start your generator and let the engine run for a few minutes to warm up and stabilize. Once the generator is up and running, follow the recommended order of operation: connect the device with the highest starting watts first, like your air conditioner or refrigerator, then work your way down to the device with the lowest starting watts. By connecting devices in this order, you'll ensure the generator has enough power to start high-wattage loads.


Eco Throttle Engine Speed Options

eco mode

With the flip of a switch, you can activate the generator's economy mode feature. This mode adjusts engine speed to match the power demands of your connected devices. When using low-draw devices like tablets, cell phones, televisions, and radios, the engine runs more efficiently to save fuel and keeps noise to a minimum. The engine only runs at normal speed when additional power is needed. For example, when using a power tool, the engine will only speed up when the device is actively being used. This mode is not only kinder to your pocketbook and your ears, it's also easier on the environment.


Safety Features

safety lights

Each generator comes with a number of safety features to protect you, the environment, and the generators. The control panel contains 2 warning lights that indicate low oil and overloading. When the engine is low on oil, it will automatically shut down to prevent damage. If an overload is detected, either by exceeding the generator's limits or a power surge, the circuit breaker will stop supplying power to the connected devices. The digital voltage regulator assists in minimizing voltage fluctuations which helps to maintain a steady flow of electricity. Also, a built-in spark arrestor helps prevent any sparking that might burn someone or start a fire.


Choosing a Generator

When choosing a generator, you need to match the generator's starting and running output with the electrical demands of the equipment you want to operate.


Power Demands

Starting (surge) wattage is the power a device requires at startup. Running (rated) wattage is the power needed to keep the device running. A large appliance with an electric motor such as a furnace, refrigerator, air conditioner, or washing machine may require 2 to 3 times more starting wattage than running wattage.


It is always best to start your generator with no load connected, then add each device one at a time. Additionally, a good practice to consider is connecting your devices in order from highest starting watts to lowest starting watts. As you connect and start devices, your available wattage decreases. This order of operation allows you to start devices with the highest power demands when there is more power available.

* The starting wattage on air conditioners can vary greatly depending on several factors, including the assistance of built-in capacitors and cold starts. Because of this, we can't list a standard starting wattage as every application can be different.


Determining Your Power Needs

The following section provides calculations for wattage estimates. This will give you an overall picture of your potential power usage and help you decide on the generator that is right for you.


Industry Standard Calculation

The Industry Standard Calculation is a quick and easy way to determine your required wattage. It may provide some padding in your wattage requirements, which could give you more power than you actually need, but you shouldn't have to worry about not having enough power. The following steps will help you quickly calculate the correct size generator to meet your application.


As stated earlier, you should always start your generator without any load, and then connect each device one at a time. The following calculation requires this approach to work. However, using this calculation removes the worry of connecting devices in a certain order.


1. Determine the starting watts and running watts for the devices that you want to plug into the generator.

a. Find the starting (surge) watts and running (rated) watts for each device that you want to plug into the generator. Look for a sticker or plate on each device or check your owner's manuals.

b. If your device or manual only shows amps and volts, watts can also be determined through a simple formula. (Amps x Volts = Watts)

c. List all of your starting watts and running watts as seen in Table 1 below.


Table 1

Example DevicesStarting WattsRunning Watts
Air compressor2,0001,000
Refrigerator1,600800
Microwave01,000
Blender850400

2. To find the total starting watts required, add the starting watts for the device with the highest value to the running watts of all the other devices from Table 1.


2,000 + 800 + 1,000 + 400 = 4,200 total starting watts


3. To find the total running watts, add all of the running watts together from Table 1.


1,000 + 800 + 1,000 + 400 = 3,200 total running watts


To run all of these devices simultaneously, you would require a generator with at least 4,200 starting watts and 3,200 running watts.


Advanced, Precise Calculation

While the method for calculating your power needs outlined above will work, it isn't the most precise. If you aren't afraid of doing a little more math, you can use the Advanced, Precise Calculation to get a more accurate idea of how much power you will need and potentially save yourself some money. Because the calculation above pads in enough power to ensure you can start your devices in any order, it may point you to a bigger and more expensive generator than you need. However, by following the more regimented, order-of-operations calculation below, you'll get a much more precise idea of how much power you need, which could in turn point you to a smaller and less expensive generator.


Again, you should always start your generator without any load, and then connect each device one at a time. The following calculation also requires that you start your devices in order from highest starting watts to lowest starting watts. When you connect devices in this order, you can start high demand devices when there is more power available.


1. Determine the starting watts and running watts for each device that you want to plug into the generator.

a. Find the starting (surge) watts and running (rated) watts for each device that you want to plug into the generator. Look for a sticker or plate on each device or check your owner's manuals.

b. If your device or manual only shows amps and volts, watts can also be determined through a simple formula. (Amps x Volts = Watts)

c. List out these devices from highest starting watts to lowest starting watts as seen in Table 2 below.


Table 2

Example DevicesStarting WattsRunning Watts
Air compressor2,0001,000
Refrigerator1,600800
Microwave01,000
Blender850400

2. To find the total running watts, add all of the running watts together from Table 2.


1,000 + 800 + 1,000 + 400 = 3,200 total running watts


3. In Table 3, shown below, the values from Table 2 are used to calculate the highest total starting watts required as devices are connected and running. This number represents the highest power requirement you will encounter as you connect all of your devices to the generator. To find this, add the starting watts of each new device you connect to the combined running watts of all connected devices. The highest of these numbers will be the total starting watts required. And again, remember to always connect devices in order from highest starting watts to lowest starting watts.


Table 3

DeviceStarting WattsRunning Watts of All Connected DevicesTotal Starting Watts Required
1. Air compressor2,000 +0 (nothing connected)= 2,000
2. Refrigerator1,600 +1,000 (air compressor)= 2,600
3. Microwave1,000* +1,800 (air compressor + refrigerator)= 2,800
4. Blender850 +2,800 (air compressor + refrigerator + microwave)= 3,650

* Even though the microwave does not have starting watts listed, you have to account for the power needed to actually run it.


850 + 2,800 = 3,650 highest total starting watts required


In order to run all of these devices simultaneously, you would require a generator with at least 3,650 starting watts and 3,200 running watts.

Unfortunately, the vibrations you mentioned are unavoidable. Any internal combustion engine will have a certain amount of vibration, because your cargo tray is attached to a hitch bolted to the campers frame, that vibration is transmitted directly to the structure of your camper. Some sort of closed-cell foam mat might help isolate the vibration from the camper.

I bought 2. They start easily and are pretty quiet. Easy to move around .
Both connected in parallel will NOT run my RV air conditioner.

When set up in parallel, the 289-SUA2000i-2 generator set has a startup or surge max power output of 3800 watts, and a max running output of 3000 watts. In order to determine if this will be sufficient to run your RV A/C unit, youll need to know the max amount of power needed for start up. If the compressor for your A/C requires more than 3800 watts to start, this generator set wont be sufficient.



by:

Received generators today. One box was torn pretty badly but there appears to be no damage to the generator. I added oil and inspected them. They appear to be well made with some nice features not found on others. Raining here so will have to postpone the start-up for a day or two.

I purchased 2 of those generators and after reading many reviews I thought that they would power the ac on my camp trailer. I was wrong they will not start the ac and they will not run the microwave. So, all that being said they do work, as I can run lights and tv but for me and my intent they were a waste of money. I now need a larger generator that I can’t afford so they sit in my shed and gather dust.



by:

I was really impressed with the looks of this generator. I usually only buy Honda on everything if I have a choice, but this time I decided to take a gamble. I have not used them yet but if they run as good as they look, I shouldn't have a problem. They will be used for construction work on a cabin in the Henry Mtns (Utah). Elevation of work site is 10,400'.

It reminds me of Honda equipment. Easy to start and runs great. Im very pleased with it.



by:

The generators are reasonably quiet. Don't be mislead by reviews suggesting that they will run even a small new rooftop RV A/C in parallel. That has not been my experience. Maybe with the EZ start capacitor modification, but in stock form the A/C overloads the gens.



by:

I really like the generators because they are quiet and they last a good amount of time on a full tank. I've used them several times when we've gone dry camping and on other situation and thus far I am very pleased.



by:

Works great starts easy they run my AC,and lights and light weight easy to take out or put in truck I would recommend them to others



by:

I have used these generators very little in the past year. Ì run them often to keep them ready for when I really need them. They have performed wonderfully. So far they have lived up to the reviews and I am happy as a pappy. Thanks!



by:

eTrailer service was fantastic! The 5-star rating is for eTrailers, not the product. Yet. (See below)

I just received the generators and have forwarded them on to my friends in hurricane-torn Puerto Rico, where they will certainly be put to the test. Updates once they arrive there!



by:

I have used these generator for power at my sight in AZ for 6 month that I'm there, which has no power to it, up to 12 hour on some days and they ran just great. They have not gave me any problems what so ever, they are great products and I would recommend these with great confidence to any one that need a generator.

After a year of use no issues.starts on the 2nd pull every time after sitting for a few months. After it's been run restarts on the first pull. Very pleased with this unit. It is not large enough to run the AC but I knew that, it run the microwave on half power fine and is a better option to charging the battery when dry camping.

  • Install, Sound Level, and Reliability of Advent Air AC Unit and etrailer Generators
    You would need to open the hole up in your trailer roof a bit to at least 14 inch by 14 inch to install the Advent Air RV unit part # ACM135C that you are wanting. This was designed to be hardwired an not plugged into an AC outlet like you have which is a bummer since that would be really convenient. We do have install instructions for this that are linked and are currently working. If you still have issues though let me know and I can see if I can get them cleared up for you. Your outlet...

  • Powering A 13,500 BTU RV Air Conditioner Without Shore Power
    No, for the most part you will not be able to run your Advent Air RV Air Conditioner - 13,500 Btu - White Item # ACM135 on battery power. An air conditioner requires a lot of electricity just to start up. It also requires a lot just to run for an hour. It is possible, however to run air conditioning on batteries. You just need a lot of battery power, along with a lot of solar panels, to help offset your battery draw. The better and more cost effective option is to run it off of a generator...

When something is wired in series instead the voltage is doubled but the amperage stays the same.

  • Max Wattage of RV Inverter Generator
    I do have options for you but inverters limit the max watts of a generator, the A-iPower 3,800-Watt Portable Inverter Generators part # 289-SUA2000i-2 are the highest we offer. If you need more then you will have no other option but to use a standard generator like the Firman 10,000-Watt Portable Generator part # 333-H08051.

  • Generator Recommendation for 13,500 Btu Advent Air RV Air Conditioner
    For your application I recommend using the A-iPower 3,800-Watt Portable Inverter Generators # 289-SUA2000i-2. This set is similar to the Honda 2200 that you're looking at but it gives you 2 generators (in case you just need to use one at some point) and it's quieter and has a fuel efficiency setting as well. The other generators that we carry run louder and have a greater gas consumption which is why I recommend going with this set. You will need both to provide enough power to your Advent...

  • Why Does My Heat Strip Overload My Generator.
    Good question. The Advent Air RV Air Conditioner w/ Air Distribution Box, Start Capacitor, and Heat Strip - 13,500 Btu # ACM135BCH is going to use the Start Capacitor for Advent Air RV Air Conditioners # ACMSCKIT. When installing this unit your right there are two black wires. They are not specific and as long as one is connected to power and the other is connected to a common it should work. The reason you cannot run the heat strip is because of the power draw. When you first turn...

  • What Power Source Typically Powers a Furrion Chill RV Air Conditioner
    The Furrion Chill HE RV Air Conditioner System - Single Zone - 15,000 Btu - Black # FR23PV that you referenced uses AC power like what a home uses and not 12-volt DC power like what a battery provides. This typically gets powered by a generator like the part # 289-SUA2000i-2. Even if you converted a battery to AC power it would not have the amount of wattage needed to run this unit. I attached an install video for this for you to check out as well.

  • Recommended Generator Set for 2019 Forest River Salem 30KQBSS Travel Trailer
    I recommend you only consider an inverter type generator. From the specs available to me online, your 2019 Forest River Salem 30KQBSS Travel Trailer is a 50-Amp service with 2nd A/C Prep option.

But based on these specs, I recommend the Champion 9,000-Watt Dual Fuel Inverter Generators w/ Parallel Kit for 7,000 Running Watts, # CH49FR. This option will operate up to 14 hours on gasoline, or...

  • Generator Set Up To Run 2022 Jayco Eagle Fifth Wheel.
    I have a couple solutions for you. You can use the A-iPower 3,800-Watt Portable Inverter Generators - 3,000 Running Watts - Gas - Manual Start # 289-SUA2000i-2.
