Any luck with extended gas tanks for a Champion?
I found this IPI Bergs1 Anyone have success with it or any other product? The only downfall of my Champion I've found is the limited run time if it's really hot outside.

Ok, far as I know only HONDA has the "Extended Run Tank" feature...
Almost correct except a little more clarification is appropriate. Honda's Inverter/Generators have a factory built-in fuel pump and a pressurzied tank feed. For that reason, for the most part a modified fuel cap will suffice to add an external tank.
Champion and others use a gravity fed internal fuel tank and in order to add an external tank one must modify the inverter/generator to add a vacuum fed fuel pump (similar to what's used on most lawn mowers).
Pinellas perfected the parts and process for adding the fuel pump to Champion and others. This message thread has a video link and instrucutions and DIY parts list should one want to do so.
