Can a Honda eu3000is inverter be used to run Imagine 2600RB trailer?

[StevenWright]

I just purchased an Imagine 2600RB trailer. Can I use my Honda eu3000ie Inverter for running my trailer’s electrical loads? If so, do I need an adapter from my trailer’s power cord into the inverter’s inlet plug?
Thanks!

Whether you can do so depends on how much stuff you want to run. A 50A shore power service is capable of supplying 12,000W to the trailer, but you don’t need that much power.

With your generator, you can supply 2800W which will run an AC and keep the battery charged, but you’ll probably want to shed anything like the refrigerator and water heater to propane. The microwave will have to stay off if the AC is running, as will things like hair dryers and electric heaters.

Yes, you will need an adapter.

jkwilson is correct. The Honda 3000i is a nice machine. Should get close to running everything as its' output is very close to the 2600's 30 Amp normal supply connection.

Our 2600RB setup is less wattage (2200 max. running): Westinghouse Pro2500i gen with a Micro-air Easy start. We run the Dometic AC at the same time as the Dometic refrigerator, no problem. It's a minor inconvenience turning off the AC when SWMBO wants to use (energy hogs) the blow dryer, curling iron, or microwave.
