Default Honda Generator problem

Nevermind.....it's working just fine. I guess it just isnt able to handle a
small wire feed welder. The welder is rated at 13 amps, but the start up
current when beginning to weld must be too great for the genny. I just had
20 amps consisting of a few 500w floodlights and a circ. saw plugged into
the generator, and it worked just fine.

Too bad cause I was really hoping to be able to use the genny with the
welder...but 99% of my welding is done at home in the garage, so it's not a
huge deal.
