i have a 5500 now that i have to turn off the window unit if i want to run the micro or use a can opener or anything else
Microwaves and can openers take up a lot of juice. They have high running watts, not just starting watts. The same goes for anything with a heating element like coffee makers, heaters, etc.
If you’re looking for a cheaper inverter, a lot of people here have been buying up Wen Inverters and so far have nothing but good things to say about them.
Harbor Freight’s Predator line of generators is also pretty good.

Yep, you just gotta run them and put a load on it. Run it on the 1st of every month and test the load. It really is a good deal if you treat them right and don't ignore them.
