unless someone has a better suggestion.

Seems like a good balance between price noise and performance. But it looks like I would have to fill the gas tank every few hours.

I'll got a little generator for camping that I never use and have handy in the garage for the tank (again never really used). Just on the surface the costso seems better than my Princess Auto as is 4 stroke compared to my 2 stroke (needing mixed gas).

As for being off for a 1/2 hour, I'm that much just with a good siphon/water change.
