Made 2 mistakes, latest is posting this ? on YT Ford when I wanted to post it here. Hope I don't get in trouble for double posting.
Second mistake I bought a poulan chain saw. Didn't run 2 gallons of gas through it before it died. Took it back to Store where I bought it, they had it for a month and did nothing with it. They gave me a refund.
What I'm looking for is a powerful electric chain saw. I don't use a chain saw very often. Electric saws aren't hard to start. They don't smoke up the air. Don't have to worry about the gas going bad. Don't have carb issues. Who owns an electric saw and you would buy another one like it?
I have 250 ft of 12g extension cord, but I may want to use the electric saw in a remote location . So I want to buy is a small generator to run the chain saw. Don't want a 2 cycle generator. Don't think the inverter generators will have enough fuel savings to merit me buying one in my life time, I'm 63. Also want it to be able to power up the well when I lose electricity, which is not very often. One well has a 1/2 hp pump that uses 10a, 1200w. I'm sure the lock rotor amps is 3-5 times more. My other well has a 3/4 hp pump which I could run it on 220 by moving a few wires around. I could power up the pumps after my water pressure goes to zero to reduce the starting power.
So who has a small generator that they would buy another like it? I'm thinking a 2-3,000 watt range.
Hopefully the saw and generator are made in the USA, but pigs may have to fly before I find one.
