the Yamaha and Honda inverter generators are great. The Honda2000 is a bit pricey, but a nice small footprint & weight for what you get. We first bought the Yamaha ef2400is inverter for our RV, but unfortunately the 2400 couldn't handle our A/C when the compressor cycled on, despite everything written saying it could handle it...(can't recall the BTU ...something like 13,500 I think)....so we had to go up to the Yamaha ef2800i, which is still an inverter, but's it's larger frame model, not as compact, handy and enclosed as Yamaha & Honda's slightly less powerful units, plus it's also louder than the 2400 .....but we must have A/C so we had to go with it. Both Yamaha and Honda are very highly rated on performance and reliability.
