Well, it is 14 amps at 117 volts... So you do the math: (14 X 117) = ? (and a starting factor) X 2.0 = ?? Given that generator ratings are gloriously optimistic, I would want 5KW minimum on a hot and still Carribean night... denny |

George George, you should be aware that Ocean Marine is no longer in business and it may tough to get parts. I have an OM A/C in my boat and found out the hard way when the control box crapped out a few years ago. I was able to find a local guy who was able to retrofit another brand of control box to get the A/C working again. keith |
