Running a generator in inclement weather
I am buying a new Northern Lite camper next spring and will be using my Honda eu2000i generator for power, and I may even get a 2nd Honda if I need it. I've rarely used a generator before now, so ...

My propane gen has never failed to start, just by pressing the button on the wall. I have had problems with gasoline generators not starting if they sit too long and the carb gums up. Maybe I'm more deaf than some of you, but I don't think it's that loud. It depends a lot on the camper too. On my Arctic Fox, it's no issue at all. On my old Real-Lite camper, it was very loud inside, but a little investigating showed me that there was no insulation around the generator box, and the sheet metal box was acting like an amplifier. I stuffed some jute padding around it, and it was then very quiet.
I don't run my gen for very long usually. And I agree, there are pros and cons to each method. Won't it be nice when someone finally markets a built in 2800 watt, remote control, extra quiet inverter generator for truck campers?
