I have one that I use for my tattoos at fayres and Carnivals. Tis good. I have the self mixing one so I have to put in 50:1 petrol to oil. Not had any problems with it although it usually takes a few goes to fire it up. Mine was £50 second hand but I know you can get them at your local Makro if you have one?? Same one is about £100.

Kwak, the highest KVA output you can afford would be best, no point in having one that will only let you have 700 watts peak output, if you wanna run a kettle or small heater you'll want something bigger.
Run time is important as well, the honda powered ones are mega reliable, just add unleaded and go.

Any of the little inverter type generators.

I'd suggest something like 1000W Honda EU10i. I'd say no to Chinese cheapies which have a habit of frying stuff (they love laptops, but kill light globes too) unless they have a decent load on them.
