None can say. So it's worth keeping a fuel can or two topped off / in rotation.
Gas generators aren't for long term electricity production though, only to get you through emergency outages with daylight on the other end. If it's going to be long term you need to plan around not having electricity, not around how you'll get it.
If you want electricity without relying on the grid you need solar and a major battery pack setup so you have the juice to make it through the night even if the previous days was cloudy or rainy. And that's many many many thousands of an investment so honestly just plan for the temporary. If it's going to be long term you need to plan around not having electricity, not around how you'll get it.
LOL, we'll go quad fuel, solar, natural gas, gasoline, and propane. To get 10,000 watts using solar would mean 5 units and cost between 11,000 -12,000 dollars.
Think I'll start reading the nitty gritty on solar units and get my husband to help me build one. There are tons of links. Here's the first site I found in case anyone else is interested in a DIY unit. It's a 3000 watt unit, not a 2000 and would cost 1/2 of an off the shelf solar generator.
