I did not see anything to indicate that either was a PURE Sine wave generator (as opposed to a MODIFIED Sine wave generator).

They both appear to be good value for a Pure Sine Wave generator.
and both should provide sufficient to power just your mount and laptop.
If thats all you want, I'd probably go the smaller (Quieter) model.

But if you think you may later want to attach more... (eg dew heaters etc.), for a small increase, the extra power may be a worthwhile investment.

Personally, I feel a good deep cycle battery (I use a 30 amp hour) is a better solution, and buy the generator to recharge it after the observing session. You don't want to have to switch off to refuel halfway through a session. And its amazing how loud these can sound in the dead of night.
