[QUOTE="KDM, post: 335915, member: 314"] Interesting!! My first concern would be the exhaust. Where and how to vent, along with what temps would be created before being sent outside. The second would be the fuel. Hauling and keeping in good shape and without spills, coupled with a .5L fuel tank that would need to be filled every 2 hours or so assuming minimal fuel consumption of .2L per hour as stated in description. The third would be the weight of an internal combustion engine and the forth would be the damage to everything should the fuel leak onto the canvas, sled, and other equipment. The fifth would be starting the bugger at below zero temps. Diesels are not known for their love of low temps. then there is the constant rumble of a diesel engine while trying to fish. I prefer the peaceful hiss of propane myself. These compared to a full 20lb propane bottle that I have had produce heat for 3 days without the threat of damage to equipment and guaranteed starting doesn't add up. Now if you have a home use for the generator as a small insurance policy so to speak. That's a different critter all together. Good Luck!! [/QUOTE]
