Do we need to install any sort of soft start on our AC unit for our 2023 Scamp 13 in order to run off of a Honda2000 generator? What are other people doing?

Can a Honda2000 generator power AC on a Scamp13 without any soft start or other modification?
My Honda 2000 will run my 2005 Scamp A/C or my microwave but it will not run both at the same time. Therefore I sweat for the 3-5 minutes it takes to cook my dinner. ;>)

The start up peak exceeds the generator capacity. You will need the soft start. Once running, the generator can handle it's lower running demand.
