    Hey Everyone!

    Looking to rent or borrow a generator for Grattan 6/30 -7/1. Needs to be 3200 watts or greater to run a toy hauler AC.

    I contacted stt and apex and they do not offer one larger than 2400 watts.

    Thank you!

    Home Depot rents out 3000 and 6500 watt generators.

    Might help posting your location.

    Would say I could help out but mine's only 2000 watt.
    Runs a couple fan's and warmers, what are you running.

    I live in South Bend, IN. But I need a generator to power up my toy hauler (15k btu AC).

    I don't think the Honda 3000 w would be enough to run it since it's a peak of 3000 not running of 3000.

    Hey, smallish world, I'm over in Elkhart and always looking to make friends with people who have air conditioned toy haulers :D

    Their Honda 6500W should do ya', and you could use the extra wattage to run your neighbors' tire warmers for free beer or whatever.

    Hey it is a small world haha

    That 6500 is a normal generator... I have access to one of those but didnt want to be that guy haha i guess if i can't find an inverter type then i will build a sound box to make the best of the loud generator

    Holler if you cant find one. I am in Niles and have a large HF 7000 watt genny on wheels. Im leaving town for a week on the 29th so i wont need it.
    Im getting back into bike racing after being away for 7-8 years and will be doing some STT days this year, so it would be nice to meet some locals.

    you might be surprised I can run my 13,500 ac unit off a single 2k Honda. my Yamaha 2k wont run it but the Honda does.
    I wouldn't say you can run your microwave with the ac on though.
