Hi Ross
In all the talk on Generators on this site, You are the first to mention that they catch fire.
From experience, what catches on fire.

that's the first I've heard of them not starting or catching fire... I have a generic rip-off as do several mates, they are fantastic. Always start without fuss, none have caught on fire and all have been abused to the point where they probably should've caught fire. Personally I can't see the sense in spending the extra. I don't use mine for camping, just to run power tools while doing maintainance at a property we own. Rated at 850w, I ran a full tank through mine using a 1200w circular saw and yes it grumbled and hesitated a bit but I couldn't kill it.

it is better not to use the 12 volt output unless really necessary, use a 240 volt battrey charger.

No, it's the "Whatsymecallit" or "The Thingamy Jig"

ITS CALLED A SHOELACE.

its Technical term is a Grizzer.

Is that the ThingamyJig that drives the ThingameBob ?

A GIZZMO

Be careful of your Grizzer
It may be your favourite pet
But
Just be sure to aim your whizzer
Or your Grizzer will get wet.

its called overloaded - can only maintain 600 w continuous - with the 2yr replacement warranty and under $100 how can you go wrong
