Generator Solution for Powering 110 Volt Camper
Question:
How does this convert 240v generator power to make it safe for 110v 30 amp camper, worried about blowing my converter box

Expert Reply:
You'd need an adapter designed to reduce the power output from 240 to 110 otherwise just plugging in the higher output power source to lower power inputs will damage appliances. We don't carry anything like that but they are available.
Most generators will have a 240 outlet as well as a 110 outlet like the # 289-AP5000 unless you have something that was purpose built for a mobile welder or something similar.
