I hook it up to my car to run ESSENTIAL stuff when the power goes out...like the sump pump so our cellar doesn't flood (low lying cellar in a floodplain).
Bought it at Harbor Freight for 80 dollars, runs the Sump pump with ease...no major dips in RPMS when the pump kicks in, but my 550CCA interstate battery is relatively new (absorbs the initial amperage spike of the pump kicking in).
BUT I don't have any long-term usage data...yet.
TO me it was a good short-term cheap solution without having 1000 dollars for a generator.
