Cite the basis for that statement as a non-inverter generator puts out a pure sine wave. An inverter generator can put out a modified sine wave or a pure one depending on the design and filtering.
Hi avvidclif1,
This is from a thread on wave forms. Pretty lousy I'd say.CJW8 wrote:
Surprisingly, my 5500 onboard Onan is the worst I have seen so far. I am posting it next. It is worse than my 2 sub $1000 Champions. I will say it is the quietest onboard generator I have ever heard.

Look at the meter being used. It's not an analog oscilloscope but a digitized one and not one of the best.
An AC generator puts out AC volts. An inverter generator puts out DC volts which is INVERTED to AC. It depends on the filtering in the inverter whether it is MSW or Pure.
