[A/S] Installing a wireless remote starter for generator
Hello,
Has anyone every tried to hookup a wireless remote starter to an Onan
generator?
I have a 6500 Onan that I have set up in a self-contained frame with
a removable aluminum cover with foldable flaps that can be opened or
closed depending on the weather. It rides in my truck when I want to
power my trailer in a place with no services. I could even set it on
the ground if need be as I have removable wheels but it too heavy to
muscle around much.
I have plenty of cable so that I can have my truck parked 50 or so
feet away from my trailer to keep the generator noise out of the
trailer and I had drawn up plans to make a wired remote starter but I
got to thinking that it may be nice to have the generator set up with
a wireless starter like those used in vehicles. Then having to go out
to stop or start the generator in bad weather or whenever would not
be an issue.
Has anyone ever heard of this being done?
It is just a crazy thought I had that I don't need now as I have a
new seasonal sight this year but my 4x4 is capable of pulling my
Silver Hilton almost anywhere. Now if only I could find some extra
time to travel for fun!
