Only once did my generator go OVERHEAT and shut down
That day when I got back to the ride after shopping the Genturi was so hot (NOTE the generator had already shut down) I had to wear gloves. So with the Genny off what was making that black polycarbonate tube too hot to handle... The SUN of course. only time I've needed gloves to handle it.
The generator specifically warned to NOT open the compartment but keep it closed to insure proper (as designed) air flow... I suspect not all enclosures are proper. But do not open the generator's own access panel .
