I have been researching the same thing for almost a year and all the
info I can find says the quality just isn't there to run sensitive
equipment. From everthing I have read if you need clean power to run
the more sensitive newer appliance/computers etc. you need a good
quality inverter style generator. I'm sure there are some good
quality very expensive construction grade engine driven welders out
there that would do the job nicely but they are out of my price range.

I have an old Miller Big 20 engine welder with a single outlet and a
Coleman 5000 watt generator and I was looking to replace them with one
single unit but look s like it's not that easy if clean power is
required.

Has anyone hooked up an oscilloscope to the AC outlets of an engine
driven welder? How clean is the output? Could you run a computer,
radio, television, or laser printer off it?
