Is a generator affected by elevation?
Yes, elevation can slightly reduce the generator's performance, but for most applications it won't be enough to be a serious deficiency, and not so much that going one step up to the next size machine won't comfortably allow for the difference.
It's unlikely a generator will perform adequately at Everest base camp, but even in the Colorado or Wyoming mountains one can produce enough oxygen for most torch work. |
Is a generator affected by humidity?
They won't work underwater, but many people in Florida , Mississippi , etc are using them without problems. There shouldn't be any problem unless the humidity exceeds 90%. Don't try using one in the steam room. |
