[SCCC] EU2000i Propane/Gas Conversion

[Michael Tope]

Howard,

What was the duty cycle of your 2KW load? IIRC, the EU2000i is only 
rated for 1600 W continuous load, but can deliver 2000 watts peak.

Regards,

Mike W4EF.........

Do those white propane tanks that you see on gas grills and RVs lend themselves to long term storage? How about run time vs storage volume consumed (i.e. does a propane tank that takes up the same physical volume as a gasoline canister provide about the same generator run time)?
