Of course rather than pay for fuel all night for a generator, it would probably be more economical, quieter and less worrisome to stay in a nearby campground and pay for electricity.
Unless you can find a campground under $10-15/n, probably not. We can run the generator overnight for air/con with around 2 gal of gas. 24/7 would be about 5gal/day.

- If I'm running the air/con, the windows are closed and the air/con fan noise results in...I can't hear the generator.
- If properly set up, no real worries.
You have to be reasonable. Do you not run your air/con on shore power when there is a chance of a brown out starts an electrical fire and burns you alive at night? Any stories I've heard of CO poisoning, there were egregious problems with what they were doing.
So I'll stand by my original assessment.
