I've had good service from a generator similar to this one. Cost around a hundred bucks. There's a large thread on this genny on ar15.com.
I got one like this from Pep Boys several years ago, when it was on sale for about the same price as Harbor-Freight. The Pep-Boys version was blue, with a 1000W peak wattage. Was disappointed though when it couldn't handle the load starting my refrigerator. It works OK for some light power tools.
But see my previous post about my Ryobi car-battery adapter.
Since then, I've picked up a used Craftsman cordless drill and 5" circular-saw set, for $15 with a dud battery, which I also converted to a 12 volt car adapter.
It's 14-volts, so even better running off the car.
A great way to recycle used cordless tools that would otherwise be landfill!

Happy Motoring, Mark
