Over the winter I bought another Honda EU2000i and am thinking I will just throw it in the back of our Avalanche anytime we're camping, whether I plan to use it or not. Normally we ask for an electric site but during the busy summer months here in Ontario they're hard to get if not reserved months in advance. Since we're increasingly doing more last minute, non reserved camping having the genset along will really open up our options. Unlike some we have also run into situations, at least once each season, where power we expected to have either wasn't available or was intermittent because of problems with the park's electrical system OR because the electric site we did have was flooded and the only alternative was a non-electric site. Even with furnace use I can usually get through 2 nts of dry camping with just one battery but any longer than that and I need to recharge, which my EU2000i will handle nicely. I've just finished building a noise reduction box that when placed in the back of my Avalanche further dampens genset noise, enough that I suspect most walking by our site would hardly notice, so yeah I think I will take our EU2000i along whether I plan to use it or not. :B
