One other question. Do some generators deliver current more smoothly than others or is this not something that I should consider.
I know from induction motors that capacitors are added to smooth things out.
I only brought this up b/c I was told some generators are suitable for running computers off of and other are not because of voltage spikes or surges. By the same token would voltage spikes diminish the life time of my tools? Has anyone considered using a power bar to plug into their generators?
Any thoughts?
