Don't want to rain on the parade either but used generators can be pretty cheap. I got one at a consignment sale for $90... Subaru engine, 7,000 peak watt, 5,500 running (don't recall the exact numbers). They couldn't get it started at the sale and I took a chance that it had just been sitting for a time (like my other one is usually). When I got it home I took the air cleaner off and squirted some ether in it and it fired right up and has run well since. I think I'm going to mount it on a small trailer I don't use otherwise, to drag it around the place where there is no power.
