generator to use with Trace DR2424 [RE-wrenches]

[Bob Ellison]

Home depot has some Subaru powered (10 HP OHC engines (belt drive cam) ).
Built by Coleman in the 5250 watt range that seem to be fairly good,
just peak the rpm's a little.Good on fuel and seem to hold up engine
wise. No problem with the generators at this point either.They are in
the $600.00 range. I know people running them 6 hours a day with no
problems in over a year. A balancing transformer really helps to even
things out.

Instead of a DR look at the Magnums, they have the best charger I have
seen. The 4024 will charge better than 100 amps and the mod sine have
the same charger.
