Providing emergency supply power, do I need an INVERTER generator to run ballast and Leds? Can I use a regular generator?

I mean I spent two grand on my Scorpion Diablo and yeah I’d hate to fry it on a regular genny. It would be a gamble. Are you a betting man?

You need to look at the manufacturer recommendations. If your ballast is generator safe, they usually say so. Otherwise a good Generac runs pretty smooth.

An inverter would be a cleaner power wave than a rugged generator that may have a power surge fluctuations. In a pinch I’d imagine a normal genny world work but an inverter genny would be more preferable but it costs a little more too.
