Hi cossie,

Loss of power is no fun!! The remnant of Ike made it all the way to New England last fall .....I just happened to be in it's path and went without power for 4 days.

Most generators I have dealt with are rated in watts and you don't want to sell yourself short when selecting a power supply.

Is your AC unit 120 or 240 volts?? 10 amps on a 240 volt circuit will equal 20 amps on a 110 volt circuit.

Let me see if I can get Mack1 to pop in and give you a correct answer..... he can prolly tell you off the top of his head.
