Bike rack mounted generator

Nice looking enclosure, looks well thought out and well made.

Thank you, I’m considering more ventilation on the exhaust side, which is an easy job, but not sure it’s needed.

If no holes on bottom of enclosure, one there would be a good idea to get rid of any any heavier than air fume particulate.

Already done.

I'm curious as to why you'd go for a generator rather than solar panels and a battery? I have two 370W panels on my roof and a 290ah battery. I just got back from living in the van for the best part of 3 months and not once did I drop below 70% capacity and I don't have an electric hook up. Genuinely curious

Simply because I’ve limited space for solar and more importantly I’m looking to wild camping for 6-9 months and need to use an Apple Cinema Display much of the day and an Macbook pro which doesn’t charge from 12v and this will likely be during winter months.

Looks good.

That’s a cracking set up and doesn't look too shabby either.

Started on another box to go above to carry a 6l petrol can (explosafe) today.

Also changing the wing nuts on the clamps for snap off security nuts.

Nicely done when did you say you were making mine?
