I've got an Outlaw 29H
The front A.C. unit is rated for 13,500 BTU s of cool...
The one in the rear is good for an additional 5,000 BTU s.
(We also have a 30 amp setup...)
The technician who did the "walk-through" with us; said that we'd have no trouble running both units at once.

Thanks for the reply!
The A/C tech stated he replaced the unit with the same one that was installed on it, so I am going to assume it draws the same power.
I am going to assume the surge protector I use on the pedestal shows the amps/voltage avail, and the power inverter/converter display in the rear storage area that showed the 18 amps is what my coach was using. I did not look at the inverter/converter display when the old unit was running so I can only make assumptions at this point. I am not a RV expert by any means
The specs for the Coleman Mach 15 are:
BTU Level: 15000 BTU
Voltage Rating: 115 Volt AC
Ampere Rating: 14.8 Amp
Evaporator Flow Rate: 320 Cubic Feet Per Minute
I didn't even think about putting a lower BTU A/C unit in the bedroom. Will have to check into that! Probably will be cheaper to buy/install as well. It might be just what we need to cool the back of the unit off while the front vents are dedicated to the main living area.
