Yeah, and good luck getting any warranty support out there in the middle of nowhere. All the modern stuff has so many electronics that they are a pain in the butt to do any work on without the correct manuals and in some cases software, not to mention you're unlikely to even find them in this...

If noise isn't as big of a concern then the MEP-003 is also a good choice. Being an air cooled diesel there is even less to go wrong with it than the 80X series.

That is fine, but if you have a source for where this comes from I would actually like to see/read it, as it is contrary to everything I have ever heard. All an engine does it turns heat energy into movement energy. In a diesel engine it turns it into rotating mass. I'm just not understanding...

The inverter output can surge up to 8kw, but what does it say about max input? If the generator is going to be a separate charger than the solar setup, you can size the charger according to the generator, as your battery bank should be more than big enough to handle any charge either the 802 or...

That isn't exactly how it works. The 4 cylinder engine isn't going to be using the same amount of fuel in each cylinder as the 2 cylinder engine for identical overall power output with everything else being equal. The 4 cylinders are producing half the power output each of the 2 cylinders...

Not sure about this "double the fuel use" deal. At full load (5kw) the 802 burns 1/2 gallon per hour. At full load the 803A (10kw) burns a gallon. At half load the 803A will burn just slightly more than the 802, simply because it has more mass to keep spinning, but it's certainly not double...
