A/C and microwave usage at the same time?

2018 Octane 161 ( 20' toy hauler)

Anyone know off hand if the AC and microwave will run on a 400 watt Honda?
I have two EU2000 paralleled and no manual with me. Thank you !

What size microwave and what size AC? And do you have any type of soft start on the AC?

400 watts? It won't run either one by itself. Guessing you mean 4000 watts? If so it will. 4000 watts at 120 volts is 33 amps. Your AC even if it is a 15K will pull about 15 amps max. RV microwaves generally pull about 13 amps on average.

If it is 4000 watts you're good.

Problem would be if you're running a 1000 watt microwave and hard start up for 15k a/c. at same time would be tenuous. If you have a soft start cap., as was pointed out by Marcm, it's probably doable
