I just found this on Amazon.com:  This is 1/3 the price of the Honda, and almost all of the 187 reviews are 5 star. What do you think?

Thank you for all of your help. I appreciate it. I will go for the Honda 2000i. The price is high, but it is just another investment into my business.

I just purchased a modified Sine 2000/4000 inverter and connected it to a Marine 12v battery. Well, the battery got sucked dry in no time.  I will look into the Honda that was recommended here. I hope that makes the difference. Another recommendation from the woodworking website suggested running parallel batteries.

As for run times, I usually run my Tormek about 1 hour a day. But that is turning it on and off at least 10 times a day.  I go from store to store, sharpening knives and scissors for my customers. I have a battery tender at home which i use to re-charge the battery when i  get home. But i need to have the battery last all day.

Can someone please recommend a power inverter for the T-7? I work on the road as a sharpener, and need to bring my Tormek.  Thanks
