This is my emergency 1kw generator. I paid $5 each for the 2 inverters (one you can't see) and the rest was pretty much free.

BTW this is the trick to getting the Delco alternator working. I replaced the lamp with a 50 ohm resistor but it needs to be there. Note also that it connects to 12v on the other end. That is counter intuitive in a car. I didn't use the switch (to keep from draining the battery when it was off) I just unplug the battery.
