Small Generator choice for 5W
Very rarely do we camp without at least a 30A electrical hookup, so my Crusader has only a single battery. We are planning a trip through Utah/AZ/NM and I feel like there may be times where boondoc...

I understand that a second battery would give me more time off of the grid, but I may find a BLM site that like well enough to spend 3 or 4 days. Eventually, I will have to recharge the battery, and I think it would take forever to recharge through the pigtail on my TV.
So, let me rephrase the question. I am going to purchase a generator. Probably 2000W or so. The question is gasoline, propane, or hybrid? Is a gasoline genny with a propane adapter, equal to a genny built for propane? If I decide on a gasoline generator, I would probably want a 4 cylcle engine. I am also concerned about weight. The Sportsmen 2000 weighs 54 lbs.
Since I am going to be traveling in the west, I will probably carry a few extra gallons of unleaded part ethanol fuel. I should also point out that I have a propane quick connect where my now unused grill used to be.
The Honda has a 4 cycle engine, but costs almost a thousand dollars. I know there are some folks on this forum with deep pockets, but I am not one of them.
Again, for a fifth wheel, propane or gasoline?
