Re: [Electric Boats] Propane generators

 

Brad,

I would compare the fuel consumption compared to a gas generator. I think you'll find propane to be more expensive to operate.

Has anyone used or considered using something like these onboard?

I currently have a small portable gasoline generator that I am planning to wire into my home circuits with a cut-over switch system.  These small units produce enough power to run several appliances and could easily run a battery charging system.  When removed from the frames they should not require much room and are not very heavy.  Since we plan to use propane on board for cooking and possibly refrigeration, these seem to be a logical accessory.

Any thoughts out there on this subject?
