Colemans is a great place.  We do a field trip there every couple of months
they have a lot of stuff not even in the catalog.

I must concur with KW1I.  I have experience with this one and the next
higher unit in power.  The ones we had ran at 1800 RPM, vice the normal 3600
RPM for "emergency" power sources.  The average 3600 RPM unit has an
overhaul interval of 2000 hours.  Just ask any contractor!  They often toss
the units after each job.  Another example was the PE-108 gensets that
lasted our CAP unit for about 18 years!  Its B/S engine ran at 1800 RPM and
the conservative MIL 2.5KW rating was, in reality, about 5KW. if one
deciphered the plate on the generator assembly, itself.   For $75.. one
can't do too much better.  Even "Harbor Fright"  can't........
