Long power cord
#2

your enemy is voltage drop.

your coach probably has a 50ft cord. if you add a additional 80 cord and you use 6 gauge wire like your existing cord has (which you are calling a 50a cord), then with 130ft at 30a and one leg you will have a voltage drop of about 3 volts.

that is fine as long as you have good voltage where you plug in. for me, anytime i get below 110v i dont like it....

yes, you can run one compressor on it.
