One or two generators?
I have two Yamaha EF2000iS generators, and they work together through the connecting cable. My question is; is it always necessary or desirable to have both generators running? I know I need them ...

Our TV/DVD draws 23W and I use a 300W Morningstar Suresine inverter (true sine wave). This is fed by a 150 amp hour AGM battery which is fed by a 185W solar panel. I have a generator which we have yet to use.
This is a sweet setup. This inverter can be set up to stay on standby and will draw less that 1AH/day while waiting for you to plug in an AC device.
I have one running like that. It is fanless, so it is totally silent. In contrast, a cheaper Modified Sine/square wave(MSW) inverter will usually have a fan, plus it will not run some electronic devices because the power is not the came as you get from a utility. The primary reason we have the Morningstar is to run an AC heating pad. Some people report that an MSW inverter will burn up the heat controller.
