Lmao, no. Clean energy means the inverter produces consistent power so there isn't big spikes that can harm sensitive electronics.

Great price for a decent backup generator. It isn't the quietest but they are nice to have when the lights go out.

No, you won't want to run sensitive electronics on it, probably not even a fridge unless it's dumb. Great for lights and maybe a portable ac. Some devices are picky, even some modern fridges don't like inverter gens for some reason, best to spec whatever you need it for currently.

As other posters have said, not at all. However, using this with a properly sized LiFePO4 power station can fix that problem, and diversify your energy strategy.

You are recycling fossilized petroleum...so, yes?

Jokes aside, can the "SeNsItIvE ElEcTrOnIcS" people find a new hobby? A majority of schools, hospitals, hotels, even data centers are backed up with large CAT diesel gennies and only the most....sensitive (and high dollar devices) protected behind line conditioners. If 500 PC's in a school can be directly powered off that generator, I'm sure your 42" Roku will be just fine. Not to mention, many US power systems have worse power quality than a decently maintained home generator or the fact every time your HVAC system kicks on or you use a shop vac, you are doing far worse to anything else running off that same breaker panel (not just circuit).

Just get a UPS and connect it first . It will help clean up the noise

True, but I work in IT and I won't buy the consumer grade APC stuff, so by the time you add it, and its still not exactly the same, you might as well get an inverter, at least when it's on sale. I got a 3500 for $300 last christmas.
