<<And, yes, useage is really worst cast. With the generator running at 50%, my Kohler distributor said it'll use about a <<pound>> an hour of propane. 75% is the most efficient for fuel use, he said.>>

Wow! Generators must be big LP guzzlers. I use ~100 - 150 lbs of LP a month during middle winter months (avg day temp 20 F; avg night temp -5 F) to run an everyday-type forced air furnace heating 2600 sq. ft. house. Would not have thought that intermittent (furnace) vs. constant (generator) would have had that huge of an impact. Thanks for posting the info. ...Tim
