Just wondering how many have installed these in their RV's and the results?

I installed the 364 on my 28BHBE and can run the AC, Hot water heater and TV all on 1 Yamaha 2000 EF2000iS. However, it does run at a much higher power setting than when I am running both in parallel mode.
During the night, I turn off the hot water heater so the only thing running is my AC (I keep the fan running on low so the AC don't cycle quite as often) and a couple night lights. I can get 6-8 hours on 2.2 gallons of gas (both generators running in parallel and each has 1.1 gallons of gas).

Best thing I did so far. Love it.
 
Put one in my 13.5 a couple months ago and love it. There's a couple threads on this including some before/after current readings I posted. Was using it just yesterday in the Florida sun. I really like running in ECO without the brief drop in voltage when the compressor kicks in and not needing to go fill up the tank at 4AM.
 
I like this. I wish they had an installation video so I can see if I can do the install myself before laying down 300 smackers.:)

It is easy if you can follow the schematic that comes with it and the wiring diagram on the inside of the AC metal sidewall.

I was slow and it took me about 45 minutes to do. Important REMEMBER to unplug the 30 or 50 amp cord and discharge the capacitors before you start.
 
Micro-air says a Champion 2000W will not work with their equipment. Anyone have experience this inverter and system?

I own a pair of these inverters plus the duplex adapter. Would be able to just haul one unit.
