I have a small truck camper and want to run an air conditioner with my Honda 2000 generator. What size (btu's) can I run with my Generator (the 13,500 currently on the camper is too much). I am hoping to go to a small compact air conditioner but don't know much about them.

you can't go by BTU as there are 13,5 a/c units that use less power than my 9200 unit. You need to find the amp draws.
