I wasn't aware of the govt funded research but it makes sense. I have one installed on top of Herrick Mtn doing an average of 4 hours a day backing up a transmitter site. This winter will be the test. So far we have almost 500 hours on it (first oil change coming up) and no problems. This is a remote site with only snowmobile access in winter. The gen is doing great on fuel economy. About .7 gph at 2300 watt load.

The EcoGen was designed by Generac with research funded by the Propane Council from the ground-up as an off-grid propane-only generator used to charge batteries.

Full power at 120Vac would be nice. In the past some have recommended a Coleman off grid model as I remember. I’m also wondering how the smaller Kohlers, and the like, have been holding up for off grid use over the past few years. This for northern Vermont where even with C/8 PV to battery charge rate we need to run the generator about 250 hours per year as the cloud cover is dense for weeks at a time.
