Generator question?

[BubbaJBI]

Purchased a used Champion 1500W generator last night for $50. Good little gen and I basically only need it to recharge the batteries when dry camping.

My question is being that it has a 10 amp circuit breaker would it supply enough power to run the microwave provided everything else is off?

Forgot to put that I have a 2013 264BH

eh.. ballpark 1100 watt microwave pulls 10ish, plus light and turntable add about 2-3 more. If I remember right.. yours should be around 700 watt, should pull about 9-10 amps with light and turntable.

There will be a surge when the microwave kicks in, the gen may or may not hold it.. Should by the numbers, but best thing is just to try it out.

Thanks. Headed out tomorrow. I'll report back on Sunday.
