Hi I have been thinking for sometime now about getting a small silent camping generator. Problem I have is no heater or 3 way fridge and no money to fork out for propex or electrolux. so the next best option I have(I think) would be to get a small generator to power the heat and cold making tools I already have. Does anyone have any experience of running a generator for their van? would something like this be any good

Re: generators
don't waste your money on gennys
at campsites you can pay for leccy
I would be looking at caravan breakers for a fridge and the same or truck breakers for a night heater

Re: generators
caravan breakers sell two way fridges for twenty quid and the truck breakers chuck webastos' away... try looking first, before giving up
