A talented Nigerian man has shown a petrol generator which power source he converted to cooking gas.

From fuel to gas generator

Like cooking, the gas goes through a hose directly to the generator's carburettor. Although the generator's power source had been changed, it maintained its fuel tank for aesthetics.
