    This one is a bit bigger than #1 but once you've tasted electricity in the wilderness you can never get enough trust me! :sunglasses: This one has been sitting in my Mom's garage since my Dad died about 3 years ago and only recently discovered under a tarp behind a pile of junk lumber. I'd forgotten all about it. I know he never used it much, ran a few power tools when on the road away from the shop. It was mainly just as insurance against power outages (lived at Wpg Beach). I've only just wiped it down, added a bit of gas and it actually started first pull. I ran a skill saw for a minute or two and that's about all I can tell you about it. It's quite portable, I'd say about 20"x 15"x 15" and probably weighs less than 40 lbs. You can see any other specs on the pictures. I had a very similiar one a few years ago and ran things like a small microwave and coffee maker with it......

    Update...unit drips fuel from carb if cutoff valve is open when it's not running. Needs float in carb replaced. Price drop according..... now the low low price of $100!

    I have been kicking around the idea to get one just in case of power outages - at that price I'd be crazy not to!
