> Open the awning, put the gen outside.

And chain the gen to something. Those little generators have a way of growing legs and disappearing...

Get a motorcycle anti-theft chain and equivalent padlock.
Chain the genny THROUGH a wheel and frame. Set up a
battery powered alarm that will detect power failure of
the genny and wake you up if you are asleep. Assuming
all the while, that CO has not put you into permanent sleep!

Heh, tough chance of that, I shut off everything even the furnace if I go to sleep, I don't like leaving anything on when im not alert to watch it. Yeah it can get cold in the rig, but thats what goose down comforters are for Smile I think that may have been what bothered so many here, they may have thought I planned to leave the gen running all night. I dont do that, if I had to I'd get an inverter and use the gen in the day to charge the battery.
