Can this generator be used in California?

Hi Scott,I purchased the unit for our 2014 camping season. Our first camping trip wont take place until April. I can't comment on good or bad at this time as the unit is still in the box. We will be opening it up over the weekend to start it up. But will not be connecting it to our RV to run the air conditioner until April.

Yes, it is listed Compliant With CA's EPA Regulations (rated @ 125hr of service) and has a spark arrestor.However Note: Dometic's warranty is little strange, it states your warranty is void if you use an alcohol fuel blends at all.The manual also states is supposed burn oil (ie they wont fix). It's not supposed to and I think most don't (if broken inat < 50% load) Lifan Power (another big importer of this gen) states up to e15 gas blend is ok, if you add STA-Bill.

You can, make sure your portable generator is sized appropriately for the circuits you plan to protect. You will need to manually transfer the power from the utility to generator and back to the utility when utility power returns.

I would assume so. It plugs in to your electricity so as long as your generator is running it should work.

Yes. Just slide it through the square hole in the generator. Should be fine

As long as the generator is hooked up properly it should not be any problem. For computers, SOP is to use a surge protector.

If you use the generator only in warm temps, I would say yes. If used below 50 deg frequently I would not recommend it.

I live in New Mexico, so can't answer for California. I will say that this unit has worked for me just fine with no problems. Sorry that I can't be more help.

Don't think so.your generator at that wattage should have a 30 amp twist on it I would think

I have run this off of a large diesel generator (tow behind rental). Worked just fine. Might draw too many amps for a small generator.

As long as the generator has a 30 amp 4 prong receptacle this transfer panel can be used

The are designed to run on gasoline, mine is quiet an powers the house with no problem. I had a 6250 W generator that I was able to convert to LP for my Sister-in-law with a kit from US Carboration. It was easy to install, I think they also have natural gas kits. Some kits will run gas, lp, and natural gas. Check out their website: http://uscarburetion.com/

This is a 230 volt AC. As long as generator supports this output then it should work. I would consult generator manufacturer for the details prior to ordering

I'd guess you would be fine. If you know the amperage of the unit you can estimate: Amp*volt=watt. In USA the current supplied is 110volts, I have a 12,000 btu window unit that draws 12amps so: 12*110=1320 watts, well within the range of the generator. This particular generator supplies 3300

Hello, yes a generator may be used for this inflatable as long as it can supports the blower specifications: 120 Volt 60 Hertz 4 Amps 480 Watt

Yes, it is legal in California, you just need to reference the manufacturer's California Converter catalog to see which vehicles that this will fit. The CARB Compliant means it meets the California Air Resources Control Board requirements. It is a Universal and it will have to be welded on.

The Champion Power Equipment 46533 4,000 Watt 196cc Gas Powered Portable Generator is the same one as the 46596 model except that it is CARB Compliant for residents in California. Hope this helps.

I really don't know. California is pretty strict on most things. I do know they have been used in Europ for many years and I have had good luck with them so far in the installations I have done in my home in Virginia.
