    From what I've read, it sure seems that way. I have a 2 stroke 800 watt generator that I'll be unloading once the new one comes in. That one is loud so we don't use it camping unless it's an emergency. It does keep the bugs down though!

    I'm hoping FedEx shows up later than earlier today. Really need the tool they're going to deliver, but of course it requires a signature for delivery :mad:

    My company always shipped sig required. Recently they made the decision to stop doing that because according to them, it'll save money... even with the likely "claims" we'll get from peeps saying they didn't receive it and us having to replace orders. I'm not so sure that was a smart move, at least not for the type of stuff we sell. But who am I to have an opinion, I'm just a minion.

    No I get it, it's just super inconvenient to get stuff this way for me. I work 6am to 430pm, mom works til 6pm or a little later and dad sometimes doesn't get home til 4pm. So, I sometimes have to drive a half hour away to a shit hole city to pick up a package. Just a big pain in the balls

    That's like my company having the business people making technical calls... without referring to the technical team. I just sit back and watch as the fire gets bigger then when it settles we come in to stomp their fire out and piss on them with knowledge.

    sorry I'm a bit bitter against the idiots that run the place.

    I have the big brother to that one for the house. It's the 4000W propane version. Just big enough to run the boiler and the fridge and, it's propane so no gas issues. An added benefit is there's no gas tank, it uses BBQ cylinders so it's relatively light weight. I looked into the little 1000W Sportman inverter generator but the reviews were less than stellar.
