[QUOTE="Forrest Houghton, post: 205751, member: 972"] And make sure you condition the crap out of it before it hits your equipment. Gas gennies output not as clean power as the bigger diesels. I have a slightly bigger rig, and when people ask for outdoor shows with no available power, I either tell them to hire a licensed electrician and have them install power with the exact specs I specify withing 50ft of the stage, or I quote them a minimum a 25Kw 3-Phase Whisperwatt diesel generator to rent. I have had only two cases where this has happened and both of them opted to get electric installed near the stage, which saved me from a crap ton of more work. [/QUOTE]
