The output that I looked at via a scope was pretty sloppy (no pure sine wave here!) but that might have been a symptom of the impending break down!
If you can afford it, I'd suggest spending more money (2 or 3 times more?) on a quality quiet Honda generator. Should be much quieter and much more reliable. |
Hmm. It's just that it's only like $60 - almost a throw-away. How much are those Hondas? I'll have a clickety click.

What if there's no sun? Can you get a solar charger that'll do the job in a day? For $60? And I can use the genny at night if noise isn't an issue, but with a solar charger I'll still only be able to use the battery.
