    Figured I would bump this back up.
    My propane tank was just dropped off and hooked up. It's time for a genny.

    I'm with JAB on this one.

    Onan is the only choice. Yes, it will cost you more. No, you will never buy another one.

    We used to have one that got flooded out with salt water in B'fort during one of the hurricanes in the early 2000s. Me and daddy got it for free. Snatched the control board out and rewired everything to relays and mounted it to a trailer. Worked great. A neighbor down there needed it more than I wanted to deal with it after daddy died... so, he got a nice gift.

    It was multi-fuel capable and slicker'n owl shit. If I remember correctly, we calculated that this particular big ole bastard would run on 6 bottles of propane (mounted on the trailer also) for about 4days. I could be mis-remembering, though.
