The Secret for Cool

It's not a new idea.  We've had the Honda 2000 since just after hurricane Charley.  It will run the small air conditioner easily.  If we put the air conditioner into the V berth with us, it and a fan does a reasonable job of removing the humidity and will cool (somewhat--no ice sickles here).  With the internal tank, and under this load, it would run for 6 hours.  This meant getting up and 2AM and adding more fuel. 

The addition of an extra 3 gal tank makes it so it will run two 10 to 12 hour shifts with fuel left over.  No more middle of the night re-fueling.  Life is good.
