Being a mobile (emphasis on mobile), there are many innovative workarounds to provide electricity to areas not served by commercial power.
Consider the first and most critical of all the criteria:
1) clean, inverted, electronic friendly power;
then
2) power output ratings at 50% - 60% of max draw needs;
3) quiet;
4) easy set and strike;
5) minimal transport space requirements;
6) minimal maintenance.
Having tried most of the aforementioned suggestions, I landed on the Honda EU2000. Of course, the best overall solution seems to always be the most expensive.
I am renting the Honda to local DJs at $50/day who, like most folks here, only need it once a year. 18 rentals paid for itself.
(Note: To keep maintenance costs down to annual oil changes and not much more, always use ethanol-free gasoline. Two pulls is all I ever need with the Honda using 91 ethanol-free gas. Before, it would make me wonder if it would ever start after 6 to 7 months of inactivity)
