Garden carries them BTW) you’ll see that the 2000 is substantially larger and
heavier than the 1000. Of course since you bench press about 400lbs…you
probably have a different definition of “substantially”. But for me, the added
size and weight was enough to steer me back to the 1000.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I was looking at the 75A model with the built in battery
charger but was not sure if the Generator would put out enough juice? I am
having the internal debate between the Honda I-2000 and Iota 75A or the Honda
I1000 and Iota 55A. It is nice to have the excess capacity and the whole use it
at home thing if the lights go out, but the reality is I will rarely use it at
home and rarely charge more than two packs at a time. My tendency is to travel
light and try to keep the expense down a bit. It's hard when the upgrades are
only a little bit more expensive and a little heavier.<o:p></o:p></p>

What are you going to use at home? The 110V is cleaner and
regulated--there's a better explaination--just don't know it off the top of my
head. Go a few more bucks and get the 75 and you can run 3 Cell pros
full blast--and a fan....<br>
