Harbor Freight Tools had a Presidents Day Sale this weekend and I just happened to be out of town and in a different town where there is a HFT. I saw this generator on clearance for $125 and had to get it. I also bought a membership to their Inside Track Club which was $30. The membership gave me an instant discount of 20% off on the generator knocking it down to $99. So the unit and membership were $130 together. The discount on the purchase almost paid for the membership and the membership will give me great deals for a whole year. Then I can cancel it if I don’t like it.
Now about the generator. It’s a TailGator brand, 900 peak watts and 700 running watts, two stroke motor, and runs on a fuel mixture of 50:1 gas to stabilizing oil. I haven’t gotten it out of the box yet but I have watched 4 YouTube videos on it. Can’t go wrong with the price! My BBU for my gyres only lasts for approximately 35 hours so this little TailGator could really come in handy especially since I plan to have some pricey fish and high-end corals packed in this tank. I live in Montana and the winters here are cruel and bitter. Seems like every winter we have Arctic air come down and settle over our town. We’re just 60 miles from Canada.
