I don't like to run the generator unless it will be on long enough to fully heat up.

Do you camp much in the winter time ?

10 minutes should be plenty, especially if it has a good load and it's not cold out.

Just the converter/changer provides a decent load if the batteries are down a bit.

When the morning low is 70 F, run your gen for 5 minutes under load.
Shut it down and check the temp inside the cover.
That's 5 minutes by the clock, not an estimate.
