Power! 1KVa pure Sine wave Generator
$550 (less than half new price from BCF)
Yamaha EF1000is Generator - Enough power to run an entire observatory for 8 hours continuously - well, it could do that for my Sirius dome and 14" LX200 with all the computers and video monitors etc before my power arrived.
Otherwise, this Generator is very quiet and delivers to top class power supply which is rated as good as or better than mains supply.
For the last 4 years it has been used very occasionally and still a great little camping generator at a give-away price! Cosmetic scuffs from being packed in the campervan only.
