[QUOTE="Tim McCulloch, post: 209586, member: 67"] It won't know the difference, if both gensets are properly operating. The real differences: A diesel genset like an MQ Whisperwatt has rotational inertia and greater voltage/freq stability and come with solid state regulators (unlike the mechanical regs on portables); fuel capacity is much greater (no hot refueling); quiet for the amount of juice you get. In my market a 40kW generator is around $250/day plus fuel, if you tow it yourself. I don't use small portable gasoline generators unless they're the Honda i-series.... and then for SoS gigs. Give me a real generator for everything else. [/QUOTE]
