 Was wondering if the little 1000 watt portable gas generators would be able to  charge up my batteries for my l.q. so I could have lights for 5 or 6 days. Would it be possible to plug my battery charger into this small generator and then charge my batteries that way.  My l.q. is fully contained other than a generator.  I do have solar panels on roof also but don't know how good they really are as they are over 10 years old.  I have a bigger generator but really didn't want to pack it all the way. Won't need air or my microwave.

?Yes, a 1000 watt generator will do fine and an extra benifet is the small amount of fuel it will burn

With an adapter like this you can plug your LQ straight into the generator. 
?Just remember that you can't run A/C, microwave, electric water heater or anything with a heavy load. 
lights, fans, phone charger, radio, tv, etc would be fine
