Regarding the Duropower - You are absolutely right, professor, about the proprietary nature of this stuff. The main module on this unit would be impossible to figure out. It is an embedded circuit board on a large heat sink and then that black sealant fills up and covers all components. The whole piece would have to be replaced, assuming of course this was the problem, but I wouldn't take the chance even if this part is available. It would probably end up being just as unreliable.
Yamaha and Honda also use "proprietary" inverter boards. In some cases, a replacement board costs more than a brand-new generator.
