- LPG is a highly flammable and dangerous energy source.

- Electric power can be generated by solar or alternator or both and are inexpensive to run.
- Are sealed units unaffected by dust
- Are lightweight and compact in either tankless or tank versions
- Are protected by circuit protection creating a perfectly safe syste.
