Make sure you ask about the return policy on it if it has something wrong with it. CT has real weird return policies.

I know CT does have some wierd return policies, but i have had no problems with mine and i use it alot. On the plus side its always nice to have a genny around, you never know when the power may go out. And the price is right considering a honda is 800 dollars more for the same wattage.

remember don't need much to keep a tank going during a outage (skip lights, reactors, ozone...)

I have a basement sump with my heaters etc but if there was an outage (and have done when replaced my return line and pump) was just place a heater and a small pump for aeration in the display. All within the capacity of my cheap Prince Auto 800W unit.
