You have quite a project on your mind.
I would add couple observations that I did not notice on those 4 pages.
- 12V heating elements in refrigerators usually have much smaller wattage than 120V elements, so they will stay longer on in average weather, but might turn inadequate in hot weather.
-Honda 3000is is way superior to 2000 on several levels. It is more fuel efficient, quieter and has a tank that will let it run overnight.
I bought my 3000 about 15 years ago and at the time I could carry it around alone. Now being retired, I still can pull the generator from front receiver and hoop it several feet alone.
Will I turn 80, I will think about adding wheels and build a lift for it ;)
Buy a Jack Russel Terrier >>> he will keep you young. We have 3 of them.
