    alright alright. I guess I'll just sell a kidney and get a product that works from the start. I didn't think about the power loss.

    So with larger generators you don't have to worry about damaging your goods when they sputter? Can you explain this a little better? Sorry, I'm a noob to generators, but you guys are teaching me lots of good stuff.

    The expensive ones have all kinds if electronic goodies inside to smooth out the ripple of the output. When the engine starts to die, the rpm surges up and down producing peaks and valleys in output, hondas have circuitry to smooth it out.
    This kind of thing isnt typically very harmful to something like an old fridge, deep freezer, or fans (unless they have fancy electronics), but TVs, computers, etc, it can kill.
