I have 2 HF generators. A 5kw normal load and 6.5 kw normal. The are the house "Chicago Electric" brand. Have had the 5kw since the last ice storm back in late 1990s and the 6.5 for about 3 years.
I used both this year with our ice storm and 4 days without power. I use them in the summer to keep the necessary things running when we have electrical storms that knock out power.
