Says 5550W. I don’t run much off it, fridge and some lights and such, but it has a 220V plug, I could probably run one of the mini-splits if I needed cool. They are 30A I think maybe 20. I’d need to bodge up some wiring but I could do that off the disconnect at the unit. --FT Sent from iPhone

Nice. Bought some ethanol free fuel for mine just now, going to test it later tonight or tomorrow. Natives are getting restless, could feel the tension in the air at the store. Confirmed Wally World is out of TP, milk, and water. -- Max Dillon Charleston SC On September 2, 2019 5:03:07 PM EDT

I've got a little 1500w 2 stroke genny I bought after "the ice storm of 2008" when I couldn't get the sump pump to run on my little inverter. It's run maybe 6 times. A couple years ago I tried it and the petcock broke off the tank.I fixed it some and it'll run now if I prime it with starting flu
