Your Onan does not put out 220. Only 110. Awhile back there was some discussion on
converting it to 220. Some one had their shop do it. I don't know how long or if it
still is working that way. Good luck. Darren

Scott-
Now if Tom would only just get busy and get those plans for a slide out
onto paper,I think there are some who would gladly put the machine shop
in with 3 phase power, along with all the special tools they could
wander around the country and fixing broken down GMC's.Now with cell
phones, faxes, The Net, Heinz and others would never have to worry about
overheating,noises in the front end etc. But on second thought with all
those tools in the back-wonder if there might be the odd rattle back
there. Need to facter that into the equation, but I"m sure Heinz could
come up with a measuring device to measure tool rattles vs. real
rattles.
Actually I did see a fellow with the germ of this idea- where the spare
tire goes, he had cut a hole ,installed a door and kept alot of spare
parts and tools here at the back of the motor home below the window
