Yes, that's a lovely little device, which is what prompted me to look for something similar to carry round to cars. I found a lovely little Honda that provides 12v at 20A, perfect for keeping a car battery topped up and running a T4
(Testbook version 4.Computer Diagnostic System) off. Also' it's a classic generator, if there can be such a thing.
The other is a beast, and will be useful for running bigger stuff, but takes up a fair bit of the tourer loadspace. I have enjoyed restoring it though as it had been sat outside for some of its life. It's main purpose in life is in case we have power cuts at home. Doesn't happen so often these days (and that will trigger one) but can be a pain for two or three hours.
Painted the last part this evening. Just got to put the recoil start back together now. One nice big spring to put back in, that I thought wasn't under much tension till I pulled the end out. Whipped past my ear at some speed, I tell you! Won't get used a lot though, as the beast is electric start!
