Everlast 225 LX or Miller syncrowave?

Ok I was wrong. I looked at the generator in my shop, then looked for the specs online. The generator is a titan7500 the max output wattage is only 6800, that's a misleading product name. I'm not sure what the breaker is rated for there's no rating on the breaker, generator, nor in the literature online. My guess is its probably 20 or 25 amps.

A diesel generator. I like that.

How long have you had it? How does it perform? Did you pay $5980 for it?

It runs nice. My boss had it sitting brand new still in the plastic up on a shelf for a year or two. I brought it down changed the oil, put a new battery in and it fired right up. Electric start is a must have on this thing. Even with a compression release pull starting is damn near impossible. When the cylinder gets to the compression stroke it almost rips my hand off my wrist, and I'm not a small guy. I don't know what he paid for it but I can say with certainty he didn't pay that much. One nice feature is the remote on/off. Comes in handy when you are working on top of a trailer, are done welding and don't want to listen to the generator any more.
For what its rated for it works perfect. Its just not enough to run my welder at its full potential.

Thanks. I would only use a generator about every 6 months, so gasoline would have rotted inside any unit. Diesel will keep much longer. (Indefinitely?)
