Our generator is a DuroStar DS4000S. I hadn't heard of the brand before, but it was very well reviewed. Hardcore preppers out here buy multi-fuel generators, but that was overkill. I managed to find a brand new one on ebay via a reputable seller for 40% off retail.
I haven't had good luck with solar out this way. Our campsites are almost always shaded by massive evergreen trees, because PNW. We have solar for our flagpole lights at home and they only last like an hour in the winter because of clouds, short days, and low angle of sunlight. Do you have a way to measuring how much power you're getting from your panel?

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
