The specs on the generator are .8 gallons per hour burn rate at 1/2 load and 1.1 gallons per hour at full load. 30 pound tank holds about 7 gallons of propane. Do the math. With 30 pound tanks and running air conditioner, I do not believe two tanks will last three days. Just want to make sure you are aware of the burn rates.
Bingo
I don't believe I've ever seen a burn rate chart for certain make and models of generators, refrigerators, furnaces, cook tops....well you get the idea. I expect it would be useful.
Or not.
