Only thing I worry about on short runs is the inside-the-box muffler. It's stainless steel, but if it does get eaten thru by the water and other stuff in the exhaust gasses, it'd be a bear to replace, and no doubt costy.

Thanks for the replies, sounds like as long as I run it for 30+ minutes at some point during the month I am probably OK to run it as needed on camping trips.

LPG is excellent for short term use with generators as long as resupply is not an issue. Benefits include running better when cold, absolutely no oil contamination or spark plug contamination. Downsides are increased fuel consumption higher running heat generation and slightly less fuel economy. I would personally NOT run a non-LPG generator for less than a half hour.

Run it at least a half hour a week. Don't let it set for months. If you are on the road and only crank it when you need it each day. You will be ok.Just don't start it or stop it under load. You will burn out the voltage regulator.
Oh yeah?
I know for a fact that shutdown w/ a 1.000 watt converter load don't hurt'm,,,,,,or hasn't in 20 + yrs.
Running for 5 minuted don't hurt'm either.
