Problem observed is following:

It seems like a sealed water bottle with big thermal mass would be much harder to cool than a larger open mouthed container i.e. mixing bowl full of water.

Regarding the unit for data - I see it is named bbq - do you bbq remotely?? That is great if so.
Does anyone know if there has ever been a UL listing or any safety testing done that would satisfy a utility / insurer of a property that is powered by said generator?
