We’d have to replace our inverter if we put in Lithium, and the van is 20 years old (though it hasn’t gone too far, and with a body job could probably go another 10 years easily). We are in the market for a new house battery, so we may go this route yet… Thanks so much for your feedback! The primary use of the genny will be to keep the AC running at a nominal temp for the times we can’t take our dogs with us (Royal Tyrell Museum for example). Re: Generator noise reduction My converter would be ancient. I’m not near my rig at the moment, but I’m rolling in an original 2000 Roadtrek. Generator noise reduction Hey all, We have a Honda 2000i genny to keep our house batteries topped up when off the grid (non-electric campgrounds). We hate being "those people," and I was recently thinking about building a quiet box, but in a conversion van, space is limited. My question here is, assuming we manage heat (fans?) and exhast, could we stick the genny into a retrofitted cooler (like, a cooler you'd put beer into)? Seems to me like a cooler is built for this purpose what with all the layers. I've done a google search, and can't find anyone with a similar idea, so either I'm crazy, or a genious. I'd love to hear from you all on which you think it is. 😄 Solved
