But maybe they do run 12K hours, even at full rpm, without inverters. I got to know my local Honda dealer, who's been around for a long time, and he seems honest to me. Unlike m, I don't believe "all salesmen lie." The local Yamaha dealer says their small engines have equal lifetimes... m says Yamaha's parts are cheaper and they are less monolithic to deal with, which seems nice, even though m can't spell and seems to possess more anger than subtlety and didn't answer my question about Yamaha engine lifetime and wonders if 1 kWh is equivalent to 450 Btu :-)

I dont know about Yamaha gens but they make great motors, neither of which go 12000 hrs, full load @3600 rpm, that is sales talk on smaller fixed rpm air cooled units. Inverter units at 50% load apx 2000 rpm will, but not without clean oil . Is spelling - presentation that important to you, or correct info. Your salesman has one objective, getting your money.

Would you have any evidence for this article of faith?

Do you know more than my local Yamaha dealer?

Or is this just your less-informed opinion?

Couple thoughts. First... good quality motor oil. Not the super discount store brand.

Second, did you try and figure how many watt horus you got off a galon of gasoline?

discount

Yes, it is a good idea to stock up on oil, however I was able to buy oil during the hurricane's after math.

If you are asking me Stormin

"It would run 24 hours less refuelling time on about 5 US gallons of gasoline."

That would work out to about 14.4 kWh/gallon in my situation.

There was a panic for fuel as it took time for gas stations to re-open after the storm. Not easy to store bulk gasoline at a typical residence.
