Best Answer

Watts = amps x volts. 1000/120 = 8.3. Assuming the oil burner motor is 120V then the generator has the ability to produce 8.3 amps. Find the amperage on the burner pump motor, if it is in this range it will work. The closer the pump amperage is to the generator output the more effect it will have on slowing the generator down on the start. Motors draw up to 300% on start up, this is what makes the generator lag when a motor is connected as a load.

Where can i buy a decent gas generator for cheap?

Sears carries a large selection of portable generators and depending on the purpose you may get a 1,000 watt generator for as low as 164.99. A 1,000 watt generator would be good for camping or light operation. If you need something with a little more power you can get a 2,000 watt for 269.99 and a 4,400 watt generator for 399.00.


What size generator would you need to run a 300 watt pa sound system for a few hours?

A 300 watt audio system means it has a peak power of 300 watts but the average power might be only a fraction of that, perhaps 5-10 watts. So it might run off a car battery, with an inverter to supply the correct voltage if needed. <<>> A 300 watt public address sound system will operate very nicely from as small as a 500 watt AC generator. A 1000 watt generator will give you more capacity if there are other devices that need powering.


How much can you power on a 1600 generator?

If the 1600 represents 1600 watts like most generator numbers do, then the generator can deliver enough power to run a 1600 watt load connected to it.
