Thanks for this Video David! The towable Whisper Watt is exactly what im looking at for my house!

Cool. -- glad it could help -- those make a nice sets and give you lots of flexibility and maybe a tax deduction as well -- thanks for watching

Fantastic info! Can you provide gallons/hr estimates too for differing kWh sizes?

[@ParkerSystems]

Generator Size (kW) 1/4 Load (gal/hr) 1/2 Load (gal/hr) 3/4 Load (gal/hr) Full Load (gal/hr)
20 0.6 0.9 1.3 1.6
30 1.3 1.8 2.4 2.9
40 1.6 2.3 3.2 4.0
60 1.8 2.9 3.8 4.8
75 2.4 3.4 4.6 6.1
100 2.6 4.1 5.8 7.4
125 3.1 5.0 7.1 9.1
135 3.3 5.4 7.6 9.8
150 3.6 5.9 8.4 10.9
175 4.1 6.8 9.7 12.7

I have been interested in using a 20kw light tower as a backup generator for more versatility they seem to be about to be found used for in the 7-10k range.

[@ParkerSystems]

that's cool --- thats a pretty special units - most old school light towers (metal halide lights) are typically in the 5KW range -- the new LED units are 2-4KW --- thanks for watching

Awesome video! Could you explain more about the different classes of generators as far as KVA’s?

[@ParkerSystems]

KVA is just Kilo=1000 V=Volts A=Amps --- we can get really in the weeds here -- It's technically apparent power -- that is the true and the reactive -- it always more than the true power and is dependant on the power factor load -- for this reason it measures the output of the sources like transformers and alternators --- I think the generator people always chose this because it always the largest value --
Hope this helps -- I may do a do video that goes in more depth ---
