The bigger challenge is obtaining and carrying enough propane if you will be using the generator for any length of time.
Is that really any worse than carrying enough gasoline to do the same thing?
Not the end of the world but more of a challenge:
- 5 gal jug of gas will run our 2400w generator for around 35-40hr continuous with a fair load on it. A 30lb tank will last maybe 15-20hr.
- I can fill a gas jug at any gas station and I can do it any time of day using the automated pumps. A 30lb tank requires a filling station which is much more rare and typically operates far more limited hours.
Actually switching to dual fuel for other reasons but access and carrying fuel is a downside.
