Does anyone out their have a Westinghouse WH2400i generator.
If so does it handle the AC on a 2016 rpod 177.

HI Gunny
 
I looked up the specs on the internet.  It does not have a 25 amp twist lock outlet.  It has 2 15 amp out lets,  To start the air, you need over a 20 amp circuit.   It will run everything else in the pod but not the air.  You need about 3000 watts, to do the job.  I have a Honda 2000 watt and it won't run the air.  Like all things, this generator is built to a price point.  The Hondas have a motor that is rated for 500 plus hours.  The less expensive invertors will have a lower working life.  The Westinghouse appears to be able to parallel with a second unit, which would have a 25 amp outlet and do the job for you.   Hope this helps.
