I wonder how disgusting the board is on that thing. It’s totally going to short out after a couple more uses

with that bulk and fuel's energy density, how is it only 1.5 hours?!

Wasting 99% of that energy to heat, a lot of noise, and, as someone else in these comments pointed out, lung cancer.

How does the engine start?

Where's the alternator?

Why does the exhaust point directly at the user?

Too expensive to run due to current gas prices.
