right, northerntool pro 8000 with honda gx390

If the fridge and the A/C came on at the same time, that could easily have
caused it to stall.

you may be thinking of a conventional ac which this is not (inverter system with
variable speed everything, never exceeds 300 watts at startup, 3 amps)

oddly enough, when I've run it the 1st two weeks since new, ac and fridge have
repeatedly cycled and since ac is an inverter, it never causes a surge unlike
conventional systems, max amps well below 20 with all and generator rated above 30
amps

so everything that was running has stayed running previously (over 20 hours in one
continous run) and nothing of the sort occurred.

How did you measure surge, with a digital meter that records the
peak?, ive seen new friges that use 100w pull 700w surge, and 300w
surge for AC sounds way to low. But its not honda so who knows who
made what as far as quality goes. Was the load balanced with a
transfer panel, how did you hook it up.
