[QUOTE="Wirenut2266, post: 2018486, member: 20398"] [b]Here's a reality check fellas:[/b] I bet my 2500 watt generator would do all I need it to do. For $750 for a good one. Why would I care about ac, garage, whole house etc? Run the heat, frig, freezer, and living room for lights or TV, what else do you need? What about fuel consumption? A 8kw will chew some serious fuel, plus noise is much greater than a 2.5kw....Do yourself a favor, buy a smaller one 2.5 kw to maybe a 4.0kw , more portable, many more uses. Just as long as it is a good quality, with stable output, you will be in good shape. I install 10:1 smaller gen sets than larger ones. If you have livestock or other animals, then I would look into something larger with propane/Natural gas fuel. Bruce [/QUOTE]
