True stories: I have a Gen-Turi Generator Exhaust Extension.
Provided power for an event using my RV's generator.. The safety person for the park wanted to know how much burn danger there was from that big black pipe.. I stood there for quite some time with my hand holding the pipe, generator running. It was warm yes, but not so hot I had to pull back.
Later. I parked in a store parking lot to go shopping, Since Kitty and Katty (Amber and Alex, my teenage (now not then) Feline house mates were left inside and it was HOT out I fired up ye old Generator and both A/Cs.. Came out and I could not touch the pipe, had to wear gloves.
SUN LIGHT was the culprit, not the generator.
On another occasion I provided power for an earlier edition of the above Event.. At most we drew around 5 or six amps AC, and I used 30 amp cords to reach from the RV to the Transmitter/receiver site. (Ham radio). When I went to coil the cord I had to wear gloves it was so hot... Till I got to the part of the cord that was in the shade. then it was COLD to the touch, again, Sunlight.
