We wanted to be able to power those same things and have a 6500 watt with 8125 starting watts. I wish it had electric start but hasn't really given us a problem. Someday I'd like to get a Honda with electric start and clean enough power to run computers etc. Those are about 5 grand and just cant justify as we rarely lose power. Ever since we lost power for 10 days after Gloria we've always had a generator.
