We can still try it maybe yours draw less power then the suzuka's Mine are supposed to draw 1000 watts but I don't know what the Suzura's draw. What's your generator rated at? The warmers I have looked at all seem to be between 1000/1200 Watts a set. I would think a 2800 could run 2 sets and a 2500 would be borderline. The Watts listed on the genny is peak, not continuous...

i know guys run 2 sets off the honda 2000's without issue so that one should be able to handle a pair. the wattage draw for the warmers i believe is at peak and not continuous.
i'll get a generator sooner or later, i may just wait till we go south in november and pick up one of stick's jobs.

My tire warmers showed up yesterday. The FedEx guy left them by my garage door after my wife got home so she never saw the box.   I put them on and gave them a little test run. They seem to be pretty high quality units. My only gripe so far is that I wish they came in black. I already got some grease/chain lube on both covers so they are sure to look like hell in short order. I believe the genny is supposed to show up today so that will be the real test...

Sounds like your set for next weekend
The only thing i say is if your on street tires use a low setting or else they tend to get slick or atleast my conti sport attacks did
