I'm looking to buy a power generator as I have relied on other previously for the many outdoor gigs that come my way.
Does anyone have any idea what size I should get?
Not sure how to calculate my power needs?
Thinking my biggest draw is my QSC 152's and 181's.
Then I would be my SX2, laptop, wireless mic, sometimes an 8 channel mixer and a variety of LED lighting.

2 JTR Noesis 3TX powered by Crown XTI6002
2 JTR Orbit Shifter subs powered by Crown XTI6002
1 EV ZXa5
1 Macbook Pro
1 Pioneer DDJ SZ
2 15w x 19 Bee Eye Clones
2 10w x 12 Wash lights
1 500 mw laser
2 Revo LED lights
Subs tickling -10 on the amp, tops -20
If I'm running them harder or using more lighting I will rent a Honda EU7000 for the P.A. and run everything else off of the Champion

thanks for the reply @Taipanic lol like I'm replying 3yrs later, I suck!
I ended up purchasing a Honda 3000I and its been flawless, fits nicely on a Rock-n-roller for transport, key starts after months of sitting, one tank of fuel makes it through most gigs.
Now I would love to find a battery solution lol never satisfied!

the honda's seem to be the gold standard for smaller, portable generators
