Actually, the generator will put out a decent AC for anything but
sensitive electronics like science instruments, etc. You can also, if
you get a multimeter with sine wave display you can download and build a
power conditioning circuit to soften the sine wave off of the blocky one
typically seen with cheaper gensets. You only need a Trace inverter if
you are using a DC generator like solar power.
