I spent £200 on a 2.8KVa Clarke one from Machine Mart. Took it to Le Mans, where it powered lights, stereo, chest freezer and numerous other things.

They do the smaller ones for <£100, but it depends on what you want to run off it.

i just want to run hand tools and when at the shop a pdq machine. i suppose its better to get a larger one than i need, just so thar i have extra capacity

You're welcome to borrow mine to see if it'll do the job for you?
