I would think it would depend on the size of generator & what else it is supporting.
If you do go that route be sure to have generator outside for proper ventilation!!! Having it in a garage is not good enough - there were some deaths due fumes here in Maine last summer. :cry:

When we used to go camping, we used the generator to run electricity to the trailer and then I used in the machine in the trailer. I don't know about running it straight from the generator. I would definitely use a surge protector power strip.

A gas powered generator used for home use, the power is not regulated. Your machine can get too much power and burn it out. Never hook one to one of the newer tvs. If an extension cord is plugged into the generator to the item, it is not regulated.

If it is an inexpensive machine connected to a power bar, I would go for it before cabin fever sets in. I would only use it though if the major appliances were already taken care of. Would I chance a $$$$$$$Bernina? NO!
