I like the very small ( around 750 watts ) generator that Harbor Freight 
and a few other plaves sold.  I bought one on sale for under $ 100 a few 
years back. There are also propane versions.  Tey run a long time on 
very little fues.


If they did not cost so much Those solar cell recharable power stations 
are a good idea.
