Wonder if they or any vehicle could be outfitted with a small inverter, enough to be of benefit?
We ran our fridge and TV off an inverter connected to a deep cycle battery when we got sick of listening to the generator, and when we fired up the generator we recharged the battery, but if you don't have a deep cycle you can you use your regular car battery so long as the vehicle is running.
A good inverter that can be hooked to a car is a lot cheaper than a generator (and easier to lug around), but will probably not start a catchment pump.
