You have to be careful with electronics. For things like a computer / HDTV and receivers you need a clean sine wave. Generally those are done with inverters. Most R/V folks buy a Honda or something of that caliber. They cost about 3 - 4 times what a normal generator costs but they don’t have a lot of capacity.

For normal household stuff (that used to be the case before everything went digital) a regular generator was fine.

I have a Honda 2000 with an inverter. Great generator for what I use it for. Mainly as a back up for when the power goes out in the hills. I can run two computers, refrigerator, freezer, a light in the living room, coffee pot, TV and satellite dish. It has a switch on it if I want to run more and I can hook another one to it for more power.
