How many lights can I run with a Honda whisper quite 1000 watt generator?

RE: generator

You can probably get 2 500 watt halogens.........but I'd bring a 300 watt along in case it keeps overloading! Halogens are cheap but there are other types ( H.P.S. high pressure sodium or Metal Halite) that run much brighter with less usege.

Good Luck!

RE: generator

The bad thing is you don't want to max out your generator, it will greatly shorten its life. Try to run at 75% of the amp rating. Honda's are very good. I've run the 2000 honda, and its very very quiet. We ran 3 - 500 watt halogens and a 250. Worked pretty good.

Later!
