Inverter generators with exhaust extensions - feedback?
OK - Have a champion 3100 inverter generator that I run while in the bed of my pickup. I have a roll top cover which I open most of the way while running the gen. I am concerned about rain situations where I will need to cover the generator while running. I am thinking about buying an exhaust extension flange and 10" of flexiable exhaust hose ( avaliable on ebay ) so that I can route the exhaust more effectively when the cover is closed partially. I have heard that it will cause too much back pressure but 10" hose doesn't seem like much? I realize that the hose will get hot and could be a safety issue. Any feedback would be appreciated. The good thing is it's just two bolts so you can easily remove it when not needed.
