New style generator by Briggs & Stratton.....quiet as a Honda

[greenmachine]

but much cheaper. It is a 2000watt with a 3000 watt surge power(which the Honda eu2000 doesnt have). I have one in stock & it sells for $649. I started it & it was really quiet, it has 2 110vac outlets & 2 cigarette lighter type plugs, also comes with a battery charging cord. BTW the Honda EU2000 retails at $1079.99. This is a great camp generator or track generator. I wish we had them in time for the tax break.

even though I know it aint gonna power any airconditioner bigger than a 8K BTU,,,,I still like my 1500W inverter with a few marine deep-cycle batteries,,,,,,recharge it with my truck and it's good for another couple of days.

and super quiet ;-)

a few have had coffee on a cold morning at Big Scrub when I plugged the coffee maker into it.

would it run a 8000 btu ac unit and other stuff?

OHMS LAW states amps x volts = watts. Thats all I can tell you. I get the "Will it wun my AC?" everyday. I wouldnt know unless the answer to this formula is less than the generator power. I know my Honda ex650 will run my 52" Toshiba Big Screen.

dunno about the 8K BTU, but a typical 5K BTU burns about 500 watts,,,,,,so even my 1500 watt inverter will run it easily.

I have been an EE for almost 20 years.  Ohm's law is always true, but a compressor has a heavy amp draw when starting, and will often pop a breaker.  If the running Amps are say 15, the inrush amps could be say 60 or higher, but only for a fraction of a second, but enough to trip the breaker.
