Ran the Yamaha 2000 genny on eco mode around 10-12 hours a day for three nights. Only burning about 4 gallons of gas. 3 gallon boat tank hookup worked great on genny as long as the genny was on the ground, and the tank slightly elevated two feet above ground. Still have propane left in 5 gallon tank.Re: Moving into my rig for 6-7 months for work.Been back to the grind. Used the Tc to boondock several times in parking lot for 4 days working as a casualty role player, helping the National guard train. Going back again tomorrow for 4 days/nights with the wife. Both of us working. Staying the parking lot of a Youth correctional center. Second time there.

I think economode is what was meant. Only reliable way to run high startup appliances is with Eco mode off. I'm thinking about using an backfeed from a 450 watt inverter to help my yamaha 2000 restart compressor on the duotherm 7180btu ac on eco mode. Seems to work fine running it on eco, just does not have the uump to restart the compressor when it reaches operating temp.
