[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 146390, member: 162"] Re: 5000w generator & inverters Dick and Rob have good advice. If you can't fit on one generator, it's better to go up a size than to split the load up. We're drifting from your original question, though - what is your actual need? If you need big power only occasionally, renting is definitely better than owning, and in that case, a trailer-mounted generator like Rob suggested is your best bet. In my case, I work hard to fit on an EU6500/EU7000, as trailer-mounted generators are more likely to be subjected to permitting and inspection where the Honda EUs fall under that level of scrutiny. What is your actual load? Can you do something to reduce your power draw? Remember that lowering your output 3dB cuts your power draw in half. [/QUOTE]
