I need a small generator for use at an isolated outside storage

only be used occasionally, but, like most things, needs to work when
I need it.
FYI, I've looked at Honda generators, but their units are too pricey
for my needs. I simply can't justify the cost, regardless of how nice
the Honda generators are. At the other end of the spectrum, there
are $99 generators on Ebay (2 strokes), but those scare the stuffing
out of me, because I don't recognize the brand and because, after
all, I need the darned thing to work when necessary.

Any thoughts for a reliable, low cost generator that'll fit the bill?

Presuming you GOT to this shed via a vehicle, consider a convertor that runs
off the vehicle's electrical system.
