That is correct! The way Camping World is doing it is adding a second 30 amp cord to the back of the coach were the original one is. I will have to use two 30 amp cords and a 50 amp double converter to two 30 amp plugs. Not the way I would have done it!!

I would have changed the 30 amp plug on the rear of coach to a 50 amp and used the unused leg of the 110 circuit to do a straight pass to the new A/C with it's own 20 amp breaker in the circuit. This would eliminate the need for new transfer switch, breaker panel and so forth for 50 amp upgrade in coach.

Any other way too run two at the same time you be to costly. And to run two on generator while driving would be way to costly!!

Hope this makes sense!
