Generators - Whatcha got?
 

I need to quit putting off buying a generator. Just wondering which ones you guys all have and whether you like your generator? Diesel? Gas? Also, how many watts do you need compared to how many watts is the generator? Any regrets?

Big sales on these days...I should take advantage of that! :lol:

I just bought one..7500w its a gas as this should suit my needs at work and at home. Probably wont have anymore power failures now..:lol:

Wow 7500 watt i was thinking of a honda eu 2000 inverter. Its light weight and can double up for camping use.

Miller Trail Blazer 301g has a 10000 kva generator built in. :biggrin:

I am extremely happy with my Honda 6500W (gas). Very dependable.... even after almost a year without using it and the same gas.:redface: Obviously it's much better to keep up on the maintenance, but hey, I was gonna get to that eventually.:wink:

2000W Honda will run my pumps and heaters in a power failure and doubles as our camping unit

4000W Champion. $300 at Canadian Tire and it'll run my tanks through an 18 hour outage...then 12 hours later, another 6 hour outage...followed by 4 more hours the next day. BC hydro is awesome.

I have a KIPOR 3000 Generator, very quiet and creates very clean current. I use this for my servers when required, camping and of course the tank.

Wow, some of you have gone quite overkill on yours, 7500-10000, very huge producers.

I still don't have one dang it. I'm thinking next summer I'll go out and blow some bucks on a solar panel array and a bunch of deep cycle batteries. Rig up an automatic transfer relay, sit back & relax. To heck with BC Hydro, can't complain too much about outages, last one was years ago and only a few hours, but they're about to crank up the rates.

Mine doubles as a truck mounted welder:lol:
