5500 WILL RUN 1 AIR & EVERTHING ELSE YOU NEED & STILL GET GOOD GAS RESULTS, 4500 WOULD ALSO BE OK BUT A MICRO & AIR MIGHT TRIP BREAKER. MAKE SURE IT HAS A COMMERCIAL ENGINE WITH STARTER. EXPECT TO PAY AROUND 1000 FOR QUALITY THAT WILL PAY OFF IN THE LONG RUN (I HAVE A HONDA5500, ARTIC CAT4500, YAMAHA6500 & COLEMAN12500)ALL ARE GOOD UNITS

I have the Onan Microquiet 4000 in mine and run the air and all other stuff at the same time without a problem. plus it is so quiet that most don't even know it is on. The cheap ones are really loud. Obviously more power is better, but mine works great for me.

I have a coleman 3750 and it runs all the stuff i need ,ac, fridge,microwave,and the tv,so it should be fine,i paid 400 for mine and it's a little loud but not as loud as the others, it's actually the quietest of the models.. the best set up is a Honda EU3000 but they cost well over 2,500 dollars,i like the coleman and it last for 3 hrs on fuel whicj isent to bad.
The 4,000 and 5,000 watt generators get a little big and i see no need to get one that big,i got the one with the least wattage to run the camper,it worked at Glamis over halloween and it's worth the money..
