Our take on the 6500-Watt RV Ready Portable Inverter Generator

A gasoline portable inverter generator rated at 6,500 watts, built for RV hookups, home backup and job sites. The inverter design gives clean, stable power for electronics and lets the engine idle down when loads are light. It is a large, heavy class of generator, so plan on wheels and two people to move it. No current price was provided, so check the price history before buying.

Questions and answers

Is 6,500 watts enough to run an RV air conditioner?
Yes. A 15,000 BTU RV air conditioner draws roughly 3,000 to 3,500 starting watts, leaving room for a microwave or coffee maker. Run the air conditioner first, then add other loads.
Is an inverter generator worth it over a standard generator?
Yes if you power electronics, an RV or a modern home furnace and fridge. Inverter output is clean and the engine runs quieter and uses less fuel at light load. A conventional generator is cheaper but louder and rougher.
How loud is it?
Expect around 60 to 65 dBA at a quarter load and closer to 70 dBA or more at full load, measured about 23 feet away. That is quiet enough for campgrounds at low load but noticeable at full output.
Can it power a house during an outage?
It can run a fridge, furnace, lights and a few appliances through a transfer switch or inlet box. It will not run a whole house with central air and electric heat. Never backfeed a home outlet.
What comes in the box?
Typically the generator, wheel kit, handle, oil, funnel, tool kit and manuals. Check the listing for a battery, remote start fob and RV outlet adapter, since those vary by model.
When is the best time to buy?
Prices tend to dip in late winter and early spring before storm season, and again after major outage scares pass. Compare the current price against its price history before buying.
