I am going to be looking for a small generator.
Maybe 2000 to 2500 watts.
Does anyone have any recommendations ?

Luka,
I own an older Honda 3500 watt. Bigger than what you mentioned , but I love it. It will run all day on 1 tank of gas, has the idle feature, is reasonably quiet. Had it for about 12 yrs, only problem I ever had was a broken circuit breaker,(damged from tipping over)picked one up for $5.00 and was good to go. Enough guts to start and run my older Senco trim compressor if the compressor isn't stone #### cold from being out all night.
How big is a tank?
Run all day? That would not be at anything close to full load, right?
Not sure on tank size, maybe 3-4 gal.. I will have to go back to my paperwork files on the information to be sure
And no not full load all the time, running full tilt all day would probably need one fill up. I looked at the paperwork , no fuel tank capacity listed.
