Why waste the energy converting from one form to another? Get a gas powered fridge, and boil a kettle on a gas cooker. That just leaves the hairdryer problem ...

either ...... don't pack a mirror

or .... use solar power! i.e. grab a nice drink, a comfy chair and sit out an enjoy the Greek sunshine while your hair dries (and it's free!)

You'll want a lot of solar panels to power a hair dryer...

Hi, most generators can be fitted with a adaptor that will allow them to run on gas, We use honda's with gas adaptors for site work where we cant get a diesel one in, Obviously only four strokes though.

Are they still noisy when running on gas? I only use one in an emergency but was just wondering?
