This generator is almost identical to the EF2400isHC.  The model I'm offering can be paired with an identical model, the newer version can't. 

2000 watts continuous, 2400 peak (some online reviews have found it can actually handle a much higher peak), 120 volts.
 
Weighs about 75 pounds with a full tank of gas (1.6 US gallons).
 
I purchased this a year ago from another forum member.  He claimed about 100 hours of use, and I've added about 200 more including during our southern US tour last summer.  It has served well, running the pod's A/C (fan set to "on"), lights, fridge, for 8 hours per tank in hot weather.  Can't support the microwave and A/C at the same time, but that wasn't a problem for us.  I need a longer run time for our next trip, and while I considered adding an external tank I've decided to buy a slightly larger genset which will have a longer run time out of the box.  I have drilled two holes in the metal below each handle so I could lock it to my truck.
 
$850.  I'm willing to deliver within a reasonable distance of zip codes 21053 or 21207.

That's a good price! Before I bought mine new a few weeks ago, the best I could find pre-owned was $950.

Yes, those are wild ponies dining on grass while dumping tanks!

The only one I've found on craigslist in my area is listed for $875, so I figured it was a very fair price.
 
Monday night I purchased a Honda EU3000is, but it has been cold and snowy since then so I haven't had the right weather to play with my new toy!
