If I was taking a genny camping, this is what I would do.

I have the Honda 2000i and installed a tri-fuel conversion kit a couple of years ago. It allows the generator to run on gasoline, propane or natural gas. Since the conversion I have run it once on gasoline (to make sure it still worked on gas) - the rest of the time I have run on propane. The propane is real clean, I can switch tanks without worrying about spilling fuel and it's easier on the carb than gasoline.
On also like the idea of being able to run on natural gas at home should their ever be an extended power outage.
Since I installed the solar, I haven't used the genny much.
Only downside is the regulator (currently attached to the generator access door cover per original instructions, but as suggested on another thread could be moved to hang off the tank instead).
