I d find out what model the Miller welder is first
If it s an older model with a DC only generator it won t do you any work as a standby unit
The smallest late model I could find was a 6200 watt AC/DC generator that has 120 and 240 power
For the average non gram home owner a dual fuel unit would be the best option but which type would depend on what s available in your area, there s no natural gas available where I live so a NG/LP fueled generator would be a single fuel LP for me
Here for a standby generator the local gas suppliers will only install a 150 gallon LP tank, depending on the size of the generator that will get you 4-6 days of use before the tank empties out
A ice storm in 2009 left us without power for 10 days, we had a 4500 watt portable generator I connected to the house, it powered the lights, fridge, freezer, electric griddle for cooking and 1500 watt quartz heater, with selective use it would power the well pump or water heater but only only one at a time
The 4500 watt generator would burn 12-15 gallons of gas per 24 hours while our 75000 watt diesel generator powered 3 large poultry barns on 35 gallons of diesel per 24 hours
For my home a small diesel generator of around 6000 watts would be best, although higher priced a diesel unit will operate on half as much fuel as a gas unit of the same size, LP/NG units use more fuel than a gas powered unit, normally we ll have 400-800 gallons of diesel on hand versus a couple 5 gallon cans of gas

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
