Whether it's your first Bonnaroo or you’re a music festival veteran, we welcome you to Inforoo.
Here you'll find info about artists, rumors, camping tips, and the infamous Roo Clues. Have a look around then create an account and join in the fun. See you at Bonnaroo!!
This is our second time renting a pop up for Roo, but we REALLY want a generator for running the AC for some morning sleep time this time. (As everyone has said, sleeping during the day after late nights is the only way to go, and we couldn't do that last time with the heat .) Since the power grid in my city has been almost riot-inducingly unstable for the last few years, we figure a gennie would be useful anyway, so we're ready to buy one. My questions are:
The FAQ states 1.5 KW max, but we can't find one that small. The smallest is 1800 W, will that run a pop up's AC?
What will happen if we show up with a gennie bigger (1800 W) than the 1.5 KW max stated on the FAQ (kick us out, take it, tell us not to run it then look the other way?)?
You will need a 3000 watt generator to run a 13,500 BTU air conditioner. I have seen people use a 2800 watt Yamaha's, and it worked.
I think the reasoning is that they do not want loud contractor type generators running throughout the campground.
We have a Honda EU3000is, see if you can rent a Honda or Yamaha locally where you live. A generator of this size will use around .5 gallon per hour. So plan your fuel accordingly. We take 15 gallons with us.

I am bringing a 3400 watt honda generator (rental) 120 for the week. Just make sure you lock your generator up! Not everyone is honest at Bonnaroo, and the rental company will charge your credit card full price.
