At home in San Jose, CA at elevation 200 feet my Honda 2000 will start the a/c in my 2005 TM 2720, but if I turn the a/c off, wait a few minutes, and then turn the a/c back on, then it will trip the Honda breaker.
I get the same result plugged into a 20 amp circuit in the garage using a 30 foot 30 amp extension cord.
This was tested by just plugging the TM cord in.
The batteries were fully charged, so the converter should not have been drawing much. The fridge was off. All lights and the radio were off, including the roof top antenna (red light). CO and CO2 detectors were on.
My conclusion is that the Honda 2000 is too small for my a/c.
I do not have a hard start capacitor. That might help.
