It looks like a nice package including a DC output for charging etc. The
problem is the fuel. Ethanol has been reported to be very corrosive and
harmful to small engines. I have had luck  using "premixed" premium fuel
purchased at Lowe's, Home Depot etc. on my 2 cycle equipment but the fuel is
expensive. I've recently had to completely rebuild a Honda generator carb
due to damage by using Ethanol fuel over a several year period.
You can read up on the corrosive problem by searching for:
