Your RV Generator

Buying an RV generator can be a bit confusing but if you are going to be boondocking you will want either solar panels, a gas generator, or a diesel generator.   The right generator will make your camping trip much more enjoyable allowing you the comforts of home in the middle of nowhere. 

You have purchased an RV now you want an rv generator so you can run a microwave, TV, charge the coach batteies or the lady of the coach has to take the hair dryer with her and you need to take the wax puffer to polish the new coach.  Get Your

With an RV generator you will need to carry extra fuel or have it linked to the fuel tank of the coach which could deplete your main fuel tank. Most are set up so they will not run if the fuel tank is below ¼ of a tank. This way you will not get stranded out in the middle of no where.

Be aware that some are hooked up to the main fuel line and will suck the tank dry. If you set yours up this way you will run it out we all say only another hour or two will not hurt. But you will forget or try to extend the run time we all do it.

Better off to have an extra tank for only the rv generator. Most generators have a small tank attached to them that you will have to fill and last from two to 6 hours depending on the size of the generator.

Remember never fill the generator while it is running or you could have an explosion hurting you and you passengers as well as damaging or destroying the coach or trailer. If you have a spot to add a generator in the RV you own be sure to get a certified installer to install the generator for you.

Should you purchase a portable rv generator you should never run it in the coach or in the bays.  The exhaust will enter the coach and injury you and you guests .Gas fumes can build up and cause a very large explosion.

The new solar panels and inverters you can run all the electrical goodies you want with out upsetting the folks next to you. The cost of a good solar set up is far cheaper that a noisy smelly generator. I have a generator in my 40 ft coach but have switched to solar and found it to be far less expensive then that a generator.

Be for you purchase an rv generator take a good look at solar you will be surprised at the cost saving over a few years. RV generators do work and work well but solar is still far safer and more cost effective.
