    power

    Who uses what??? Who uses a generator?.... Inverter?... extension cord?...I am setting up a new truck and plan on using a inverter again. My last setup had a 2000 watt inverter. It worked good but want more power. Might go with a 5000 watt inverter so i can run a larger compressor.

    I use the clients power and water when available, but I do have a generator for jobs at apartment complexes and the such.

    I have a Sportsman Portable that suffices for me. Change the oil when it is due and to turn it off for the last time each day, cut the fuel supply and allow itself to burn off all gas in the carb and that thing will last a while. It was only $200

    And Bobby, is that tire shine on the generator tires?

    currently extension cord

    considering a gen or inverter in the spring. really like the inverter idea, but just buying a gen then gas & go sounds much easier in comparison

    They sell inverters at wal-mart for around 70 bucks. All you do is hook it up to your battery then start your car, and your whole car becomes a generator
