My previous trailer had an Onan 5500 LP generator but I had 40# cylinders. I could go about 20 hours on one cylinder. So a 30#'er would run a little less. I used it primarily at NASCAR races and ran it for about 3 hours at a time. Although a night boondocking is not out of the question. My current trailer has the same generator but gasoline powered.

BTW - if nobody has mentioned it, welcome to iRV2.com. We hope you make us a regular stop on your internet journey.
