    I'm in the generator camp in this discussion.  I'll cook with gas but I do 
like lots of light,thus the generator.it don't make any noise when it's turned 
off.So far I have 
not had to have AC when I camp,maybe when I get older.

          Just for the record I was agreeing with the Dave that said that 
generators and radios were incompatible with camping however, I do like to be 
comfortable when I camp. =^)

                “they” make quiet generators but of course one pays extra for 
them. Either way I’m in Dave’s camp on this one (pun intended)

                        I very nearly agree. The only thing worse than the 
noise from a generator is suffering from a heat stroke while trying to sleep at 
a primitive camp site. 
                        I have heard it helps a lot to dig a hole to put the 
generator in to cut the noise. 
                        But really, I would just as soon avoid all things 
primitive.

                      True, but personally I believe that generators (and other 
noisemakers like radios) are fundamentally incompatible with camping.  So for 
me (and others, I suspect) a generator is not an option.  Warm beer is also not 
an option!

                        I guess if you got really desperate you could buy a 
small portable generator.I think you can have all the electrical you can use 
for less that the price of batteries and the inverter and they won't take up 
more space than thefour batteries.You just need to get a long extension cord 
and consider the low engine sound as Denis white noise.

                              Nope. Sorry. It's 97* in the shade. All your ice 
has melted by day two. The sandwiches you double-bagged in Ziplock Freezer bags 
still got soaking wet somehow. The nearest store is 6 miles away, but it's 
Sunday. Are they open? You don't know. Besides, you've already had four beers 
so you're not going anywhere anyway. So you finish out the night on warm beer 
and soggy sandwiches that are surprisingly more disgusting than you expected. 
                              Not that I've been there or anything.

                            One cooler = $30
                            Two bags of ice = $3
                            Cold beer = Priceless
