Does Anyone See A Need For a Portable Generator?

The best thing you can do for a generator is to use it and at half a gallon/hour, how much fuel are you saving with a portable...

Assuming the portable is in the 2000-4000w range, you aren't going to be burning anything close to 1/2 gal/hr. On our 2400w yamaha, we get 7-12hr out of a gallon. On the lower end if we are running the air/con and the higher end if not.

Still doesn't makes sense to take a portable if you have an onboard generator but make the choice with reasonable assumptions.
