Chester it should be .9. If I am correct and Tom or others correct me, but a 20 KW Gen. puts out about 180 amps. So 50% would be 90 amps. and there is no way my MH would pull that much amps. Now if I had a 5trh wheel buddy next to me plugged into the buddy plug and we both had everything running we might. So when Tom said he thought a 20 KW gen. would use about .6 or so gals an hour it probably about correct. So the gen. is pulling about 10 or 15% total or about 18 or 25 amps on average in a 8 hour period. Because the A/C and other stuff doesn't run the total time. So I would say my gen. would use about .6 to .8 a gph in a 8 to 10 hour period. It is all according to the weather.
The manual is just giving us a base to go by. If it was loaded with 10 KW the total time it would use 1.2 gals. an hour. That is the way I see it.
