I have a Honda EU6500I inverter generator that I use for whole-house emergency power. I recently rigged up an adapter power cable so that I could power my Longevity StickWeld 250 from it. With the welder set to 100A I was pulling around 3300 watts from the generator. With the welder set to 150A and using a 1/8" E6013 I was pulling 6500 watts from the generator.
I used the combination last weekend for a repair project located where I would otherwise not have had 220V available and it worked very well.
I'm comfortable knowing I can now weld anywhere albeit with a 150A limit.
