This is another one of those topics that lends itself well to "you get what you pay for." If you're the one living the lifestyle of a computer and other technology person(s), the generator you want should be one that lends itself well to good, clean sine wave power. Today's technology works best with clean sine wave power.

Just to add something that someone else mentioned about adding a Surge Guard with a generator, I would hesitate to do that. Generally speaking, note I didn't say "always" but generally, today's good generators don't really require any type of surge protection since they are usually well equipped to prevent any type of surge in their output power.

For us, we went to the Honda 2000 generator because of it's size and weight. If we decide to do a lot more dry camping we will invest in a second Honda 2000 so we can run our AC.
