No Coffee! ARG
Here I sit grumpy and wanting to vent.
Decided to take the family out camping after working for 7 days straight, 18 hour days, due to the flooding in Southeren Alberta.
Got up early so I could log into work, I went out and fired up the generator, Champion 2000i.(before anyone makes a smart comment about early morning, and running the generator, the closest person is about half a mile away).
Came back in and threw a T-Disc in the ol tassimo. It brought my genny to its knees, then it went into overload. Weird! I thought. This Tassimo is rated at 1350watts, ny genny should have handled this no problem. I shed all the other loads and tried again, same result.
No worries, I thought, I brought both gennies. I went back out and hooked them up to the parallel kit. Fired them up and came back in. This time it did not go into overload, but they sure were working hard. The Tassimo was sounding really rough, then POP! it blew up a T-Disc. After 6 discs, I had half of cup of coffee...
Both gennies run the A/C, microwave, etc. but they both can't run this little coffee machine.
I did a quick search on the site and it appears this has happened before to "Hedge" on his Honda eu3000i

I wonder what makes this little coffee maker not play nice with inverter generators.
too early for a beer?
