As far as volts, 120V should be enough unless you're going to run a very
large appliance like a clothes dryer or hot water heater in which case
you might need 240V. The wattage required depends on what you want to
run off the generator. Personally, I can't think of any reason to take a
generator camping but I'm a minimalist of sorts and think the Vanagon
itself is luxury enough.
