If still running A/Cs, it would take over 5 or 6 hours of fast idling.
Its easy to see why Thor added a generator to the Tuscany with lithium package (compared to prototype). I expect those buying that kind of luxurious coach want few compromises.

its confusing, but this coach does not have a generator. only source to recharge the volta pack is the engine driven dedicated alternator, some solar and plug into the pedestal.
it will run everything off the inverters for a bit
