Auto-LPG Conversion Thread

[webmiester]

The LPG genset I saw had a small kitchen LPG tank as it's source.

BTW, you don't need to use a car sized LPG conversion kit... one make for a motorbike or even a home made nozzle with regulator would be enough since the genset runs at a constant speed.

I think you really need a kitchen-type LPG tank or something a little like it, not like the ones in the cars. Can you imagine bringing a genset to the nearest LPG station to refill?

Isang point din na raise ko yan when I was discussing this with someone else - I told him mukhang gago naman ako kung daladala ko yung genset para magparefill.

Next question - why is LPG for vehicles cheaper per kg than kitchen type LPG?

I think it's tax... or lack of it to promote its wide use. Also less distribution costs and volume consumption. Example, a kitchen size LPG tank is used up in 1 month while a car (which would have twice the capacity of a kitchen tank) would be empty in a week.
