The real problem is not so much the watts it has more to do with the amperes required.

For example: You have a 120 volt waffle iron that uses 1,200 watts. 1,200/120=10 Amps. Therefore something is really out of whack as marks post shows peak amp output is 8.5 amps.

I have a 5000 watt generator that puts out 20 to 25 amps. It will run a housefull of 120v but none of my 240v because there are not enough peak amps to start them.

At this point not impressed.
