G'day all
When we had our Jayco caravan we could run the airconditioner off our 2KVA generator.

We have since changed caravans and the new van has an Ibis Roof Top airconditioner which the 2KVA generator will not start. We have been advised that the Ibis AC need about 2.8KVA to start and about 1.4KVA to run once started.
I have found an inverter? that can boost the power for short periods of time through the caravan battery but this was pretty expensive (about $1,900).
Does anybody know it there is another way of getting the AC started with our existing generator.

We rarely use the AC so really don't want to buy another generator for something that may never get used.

Look forward to any advise that anyone may have regarding
