avkid: the response i got form a trust worthy friend of mine is that you can run it as long as you don't exceed 3.6kw

Remember, sudden lamp inrush can cause the the generator to slow down causing it to go below 60hz. The result of dropping frequency actually causes the dimmers to to pass more power as they contain ramp modules that are tuned to 60hz. The effect can be pretty weird.
