Do you really want gasoline stored in your MH? The best thing you can do for a generator is to use it and at half a gallon/hour, how much fuel are you saving with a portable and are they really quieter for those with delicate hearing?
My generator run time decreased from 2 hour to 1.5 when I installed a residential refrigerator by adding a $200, 100A charger, doubling my charging capacity.
Since then I DIYed 900 W of solar with a payback of 25+ years because the secret of boondocking in the summer (only time we do) is elevation and SHADE so you do not need AC. My generator run time is still over 1 hour…I run it anytime I’m using a high amp appliance.
