[QUOTE="Nightjar, post: 210581, member: 1414"] My motto is buy cheap, buy twice or maybe three or four. Wouldn't touch anything like this. Also there is a misconception that running all your electronic gadgets from a pure sine wave generator will not harm them. Maybe not if you are diligent, turning off all equipment before shutting down to refuel etc. What happens when an engine runs out of fuel? It coughs and splutters, revs up and down and finally stops. You may get away with this many times or the first time it happens you can blow delicate electronic components, capacitors etc. Apart from this issue many suppliers including Lectron promote wiring a generator to your home meter box to overcome power outages. Honda have warning against this practice. Not an expert in this field but someone here may know? My interpretation is it is highly dangerous because during power outages there are linesmen working on the grid he can be electrocuted by your generated power being fed back into the grid. [/QUOTE]
