Don't know if they still exist, but I bet that there are similar devices out there that do not depend on electricity.

I'd stick with the gasoline models, but it does depend on topping up your vehicle(s), rather than waiting for the low-fuel message to appear.

Most RVs have refrigerators that run on propane, mains power or 12 VDC. That can be a help for essential items.
