Which is why I am installing a solar MMPT controller, and researching a foldable solar array that will fit in the top luggage carrier. Gas & diesel generators are not the way to go anymore, even tho solar arrays are only 12-15% efficient, they are lot's easier to purchase & implement these days. Plus generators are big & heavy, as has been pointed out, noisy! Jon On 2/5/2015 9:57 AM, Don Hanson wrote: > Sorry, just noticed it isn't Fri.
