Just curious if you have problems running your generator anytime you want to. I have the Honda EU2000i to use for charging my battery bank every morning requiring a three hour generator run time.
I sometimes have a problem with the camp grounds where I can run my generator...
Its usually a few hours in the morning and then again a few hours in the late afternoon.
I have never found a public place where I can run my generator after 8PM at might or before 8AM in the mornings...
Private camp grounds is a different story and I guess dispersed camping would also be a different story. Here on the East side of the US we don't have many dispersed camping sites that I know of...
With all of this in mind almost all of my OFF-GRID camping at Public Camp Ground areas is powered using my battery banks which of course will not support Air Conditioning...
Just curious...

We have run across a couple campgrounds recently that don't allow generators at all. The last was in Big Bend National Park. Cottonwood campground doesn't allow them and for that reason it stays full of people looking for a quiet camp. (according to the park ranger)
I think there is a trend forming. The number of rv's we see now sporting some sort of solar panels to keep their batteries charged seems to be climbing at a fast rate. Even in parks where generators are allowed we have noticed a pretty big reduction in their use over the last couple years.
