Simple question can I build Fueled Generators out side? Or will the rain short them out?
Fueled Generators produce a lot of heat so it is usefull to build them outside.. Rain has no effect on them.

Thank you. Right now I have them in a big cave and it winter so the heats not hurting me at all. I will build some outside for summer.
They dont generate a lot of heat, its really not that bad. They also produce some light and are aesthetically neutral so I love having em indoors. All of which is incredibly handy when combined with the fact that they are immune to a solar flare.

Huh? Solar flares knock out everything electrical, unless you're referring to the light and heat from the generators. SFAIK, solar flares knock out all electricity regardless of source (solar palens, wind turbines, geothermal or fuel generator). The power generators still run so you'd still get the heat and light from a fuel generator or heat from geothermal, but no electricity gets to power anything. Battery charges seem to tend to freeze, neither charging nor draining during a solar flare.
