Any of you who have ever depended on a small home generator during an extended power outage will appreciate the fact that gasoline can become difficult to obtain. * This is further compounded by the problems of storing ethanol gas for any length of time. *After hurricane Charlie here in SW Florida my neighbor and I took turns driving 50 miles round trip every night for over a week to buy generator gas. I just found a web site selling propane and natural gas conversion kits for small gasoline generators if anyone is interested. * I have no personal interest (or experience) with their products. http://www.propane-generators.com/ One good thing about 'natural' or 'propane' is that it doesn't spoil. My Honda is readily to hook up to a 500 gal. propane tank in necessary. Power outages in my area are not often and only momentarily for a couple hrs at the usual. But you never know. Especially in the winter if a good ice storm comes along. Some rural people have been out of electricity for two weeks in freezing temps. changing over a small gas engine to propane is easy and well worth it. Thanks for the post, Wayne. |
