So i got this 23' foot coach with a Dometic portable generator. Jim bounds made a heroic effort in 2012 to develop a cheap quiet solution but ultimately it did not work out.
Since then quiet inverter generators have gotten a lot cheaper so there are other solutions.
Initially i wanted to go back to Onan. I love old Onans and i can make them behave (Smokestak.com is your friend)
But then it occurred to me the generator would be under our bed. How would that work? I live in the South- it does not cool down at night in July at Myrtle Beach.
We mostly travel with hookups but i'd like to not have to.
SO how many of you can sleep over a running generator?
I'm wondering if it would not work better to have a portable? May on an extended fuel line to run in or out of the generator compartment?
Also, what is the normal fuel delivery for the onan? Jim's Dometic project required running a line from the drain bung on the aft tank.

It's gonna take a lot of Adderall to get this thing right.
