Doesn't that just mean the receptacle is rated 50A but the generator can only produce 30.2A max?

not an electrician but I'm assuming a few second surge is fine, similar to welding wire being undersized because of the duty cycle. cheers

Same price at Home Depot now— I've been watching it since the last time it was posted. It'll be under $900 (plus tax) with military discount

so with any gas carb you want to turn off the gas flow and run it dry. also, you want to run it at least once every 30 days. else, either you are taking it in for a carb stem cleaning/replacement or you are learning how to remove and take apart a carb and remove the stem and poke the ever so tiny clogged holes with a stick pin, which isnt so difficult after you do a few laugh out loud

So many generators listed on here. Seems like Generators needs its own site.

HD does not ship to CA either. Must be some non-sense CA EPA thing.
