Pappas that sure is a nice setup! Is it intergrated with the trucks electrical system (can it be started from the cab?)? And do you ever pick up snow and salt on that gen without a skid plate???

Yes Welcome to SS! Can you start the generator from inside the cab like the 'Rigmaster' a few posts back?

Well the Idea would be to keep it cheap, is there any way to find one of these for under say... $1500.00? I know I can hear it now..."you could buy 2 gensets for that!!!" But this thing has peaked my interest. Where could I find one used? Does it draw fuel from the existing fuel tank/pump or...

That is what I need! I could mount it in place of the pioneer tool rack!

Yes That is EXACTLY what I need!! I could fit it right under the passenger seat.

Ok let's go on the assumption that a self contained generator unit is not an option (if it was I probably would have made it a subject of this thread) Just the options as far as the deuce is concerned. I know it shouldn't be run for days on end but in an emergency it would be nice to run her for...

Seems like there would be a large power loss, an inverter seems more practical. But 350watts is pretty good considering what it is. Does it plug right into the NATO jumper outlet?

Those tripp lite inverters are exactly what I had in mind. I can't believe the military never made anything like that, even for the van body radio trucks.

I have a 110v AC to 24v DC Transformer, I was thinking If wired correctly it could be used to transform 24v DC to 110v AC.

I'm not going to get that fancy, just a couple of extension cords running into my house to run a few things like the television, radio, and coffee maker. Maybe the water heater and pump if I can get enough amps out of her.

This has probably been discussed but I cant find much on it so here goes. I want to use my M35A2C as a backup generator for my house in the event of a power outage, it would also be nice to have AC off the truck for running power tools and droplights. Up here in New England we loose power a few...
