Plan Your Power.
Explore 10 common appliances ranked from higher to lower estimated peak or maximum input wattage. Check both running power and startup demand. Available output is lower on propane than on gasoline.
Power Planning Note: All wattages are illustrative examples, not tested specifications for particular appliance models. Peak values for motor-driven equipment refer to estimated starting demand; maximum values for heating and lighting equipment refer to estimated input power. Actual starting requirements can vary significantly. Some RV air conditioners may need a compatible soft starter. The ERAYAK 4500PDE provides 4,500W peak / 3,500W running on gasoline and 4,050W peak / 3,150W running on propane. Equipment with starting demand near these peak limits may not start reliably, especially with other loads already connected. Check each appliance's actual voltage, running watts, startup requirements, outlet ratings and total connected load before use.

Connect Your RV the Right Way.
A compatible L5-30P to TT-30R adapter allows a standard 30A RV power cord to connect to the generator's 120V L5-30R locking outlet.
Prepare Your Fuel
Choose gasoline or propane and set up the selected fuel according to the owner's manual. If relying on automatic propane-to-gasoline switchover, ensure usable gasoline is available.
Connect a Compatible Adapter
With the generator stopped and RV loads disconnected, connect a correctly rated L5-30P to TT-30R adapter to the L5-30R receptacle. Attach the compatible 30A RV power cord.
Start & Manage Loads
Start the generator using electric start or the recoil backup method. Add RV electrical loads gradually after output stabilizes. Stay within the selected fuel's continuous power rating.
RV Compatibility: An L5-30P to TT-30R adapter is for compatible 120V 30A RV connections. It does not create 240V output, provide full 50A RV service or increase the generator's wattage. RV air conditioner compatibility depends on compressor startup and total connected demand.
Operate the generator outdoors only, at least 20 ft from doors, windows and vents, with exhaust directed away from occupied buildings. Never run inside an RV, tent, home, garage, shed or other enclosed or partially enclosed area. Use functioning carbon monoxide alarms. Keep the generator dry and avoid rain, standing water and flooding. Install propane hoses and regulators according to the manual. Check connections for leaks before starting and keep propane tanks properly positioned and secured. Never refuel gasoline while the engine is running or hot. Use appropriately rated electrical cords and connections, disconnect loads before shutdown and follow all manufacturer's safety instructions.
