That looks close to the generator I bought at Home Depot sale for $150.
Mine is rated at 1000 W peak thought.
I would worry more about fumes than fire with camper mounting.
The generator 12V outlets usually deliver "dirty" power. Good for emergencies, but for everyday use, better get automatic charger.
For me the small generator is back-up as when I camp, I need to carry 3000W for AC.
Love the 20lb weight and small size. I keep it on the truck 2nd row floor most of the time. Can take it on boat as well.
That thing really sips fuel as I experienced when the house power went out for most of the day and it will run my smaller micro and coffee maker.(not at the same time)
