living without a fridge/freezer

Just keep in mind the cost effective aspect.

A power inverter of 1000w can cost more than a generator of 1000w and you do need at least 1000w. Almost all electric power tools have a starting surge of at least 1000w and if you can not overcome that the inverter shuts off automatically.

The real advantage of the inverter is that you can mount it under the bonnet and wire leads from the battery so it is always ready and you have power anywhere you have the vehicle. Just start the motor, plug in, press a button and you have juice in the driveway, in the garage or out in the fields or roadside.

I have one mounted under the bonnet of my lawn tractor so I can drive it where I need it on the home lot.
