Default Inverter generator Do I need that?

The Honda EU2000i would seem to be the ideal generator for you. The
only drawback would be its small gas tank.
Other inverter generators in its class are less efficient because they
may not throttle-down when lightly loaded. And they are loud compared
to the Honda. (Apparently some use a different method of measuring
their sound level.)
I have the Honda EU6500i. It probably uses more gas than the EU2000i,
but has more power and a larger gas tank. With my light load, it will
run at least 16 hours.

I just phoned my local Honda dealer south Ontario Canada
to check out the EU6500i - he says it's now replaced with
7000 i es @ $ 4900. $ 3650. US dollars

Or you can get a nat gas/gasoline fuel generator with a Honda engine
and similar output for $2300, but it's not inverter style:
