Thanks Dave17352, I actually just read your post when I did a search on this site! Very cool solution for you. I'm sort of rethinking this though and may just end up purchasing an original generator meant for my camper (Onan Camp power 2800) That way I'll just push a button in the camper since it's all prewired and plumbed for the propane.
Thanks again!

Pushing a button is nice but does it outweigh the quiet,reliability and efficiency of the H 2000? Not to mention the cost difference between the two. I think not.
At my age, needing to go out and starting my generator is good exercise, except when it is raining.
I have written a few threads on my OEM Onan and my opinion, in hindsight, is that I wish I had never ordered it with my Lance camper. (be sure to order/purchase your Onan Generator from a Cummins Service Center as they have the best price) The first one had a factory defect (over 2000 generators were impacted by this machining error) resulting in my first generator being rebuilt 4 times before Cummins replaced it (all under warranty). The replacement worked for 6 months before the voltage regulator went bad and had to be replaced (again under warranty). After that, I purchased a Honda is3000 for use as my primary. My Onan is still there and relegated to back up use, when the Honda quits working (first time when a known problem of a bolt came loose in the manifold and fell down shearing off the starter flywheel while under warranty and the second issue was when the carburetor failed and needed to be reworked) but still works well for the minimal amount of time that I use it.
