Thank you. I just heard the same thing from a buddy of mine this evening. He runs his genny and doesn't have issues.

From what I've read, the generator produces a cleaner current than the modified sine wave inverter.

So maybe it's not over-heating as much as I'm slowly choking it over time with a lesser quality of current.

It sounds like I'd be better off using the generator more & relying on the inverter less.

I'll start doing that & see how it holds up over the next year or so.
