I push the yamaha 2400ishc because it will start loads with 30 plus amp draws at startup and 15-20 running amps due to the capacitor pack. It's quiet, efficient and yamaha quality.
Apparently they don't make that model, or the 2800 like tikkanut's, anymore. At least I can't find them.
I have a Wen 2000 inverter that runs good.
