You are correct, sir - I misspoke. I've been shopping for inverters
recently, so I guess I had "modified sine" on my mind. What I should have said was that the cost difference hinged on pure sine inverter-type generators v. traditional alternator-type generators. You are correct in stating that the traditional alternator-type generators produce a true sine wave, but the waveform is dependent upon the speed at which the alternator is run, and is susceptible to hiccups from misfires, etc. So, the inverter style DOES provide a cleaner waveform in comparison. BUT, my comment implying that "traditional" generators were not suitable for reactive loads was NOT correct. That applies to modified-sine inverters, not traditional generators. Thank you for pointing out my error! 73, Ravi Jonathan Guthrie via BVARC wrote:
