Hi Brad

I have the same generator (950 watts) that Princess Auto sells and as a test I have run it for about an hour running my ampmaster (143 watts) a heater (250 watts) with no problems. As a precaution I used a surge protector to attach my equipment. A friend of mine is an electrician and he tells me that running most of our aquarium equipment will be no problem. He also said not to attach more watts than the generator can handle. I think I would think twice about hooking my big screen TV to it, but my fridge and freezer might get an hour here and their.
