2. Your concern with "temperature, altitude, and other loads" is called "application" (i.e., HOW a generator will be used). I did NOT address or discuss application. Ultimately, it's up to the OP to decide which generator is best for his specific application.
Certainly hope this brings some clarity in your on-going quest to help the OP.
OK, OK. Application is not a factor. Neither is budget. Just red versus blue. I like red too. I have wasted a lot of money over the years without asking about "applications". But it is not "our" money, is it? I prefer asking over opining, without the facts.
