Go BIG or Go Home, I went BIG, Power Tech 20kw.
I was not intending to install anything close to this size, the original plans were to get something in the 6 or 7 kw range.
Then the Power tech fell right into my lap, another Busnut bought a bus for parts for his bus, parked it right beside mine in the yard, pulled a bunch of parts off of it and then offered me the Power Tech 20kw with less than 100 hours on it to me for $2000, impossible to refuse.
This thing will power everything I have plus the surrounding 2 or 3 busses.
I got the generator, slide mount, Electrical connection box, Wiring complete with remote start panel and exhaust system.
The slide out mount is good for generator maintenance.
The only downside is it takes up quite a bit of Luggage bay space and weighs almost 900 lbs.
I just finished installing it this week, and got it started, I plumbed it into the main Bus diesel tank.
I made sure the Generator fuel Pickup was a couple inches above the Engine fuel pickup so as not to run the bus out of fuel with the generator.
Took almost 40 feet of fuel line to get it installed, 20 foot Pickup and return lines.
A load switch is in the future, currently wired with an outlet to plug the Busses shore power cord into.
