We ran the extended tanks a lot on a few 1000's for the 16-17 megawinter
out here. Be sure and follow the maintenance on them when you do
extended runs of those 2-3 days as they will trash their oil doing that.
We got to where we were changing the oil every third extended run and
it showed in the oil we were pouring out. We didn't at first and now
one of the 1000's is running pretty smokey compared to the other two.

The extended fuel tank certainly de-stresses the situation.

You need an inverter generator which generates clean sinewave power.
The best and most reliable will be the Honda eu1000 or eu2200 which we
have one and it's been awesome! Will last forever if you follow normal
maintenance schedule. They should be stocked locally at any place that
sells tools or generators.
We also bought and extended runtime tank on eBay to allow it to run up
to 2 or 3 days without a refill.

We found that on our APC ups units pretty much all of them
work from most generators if we change the input sensitivity
from high to medium. Apparently has something to do with
how it views the square wave of the input power.
