12v-110v power inverter

Bought one of them little 2-cycle generators for camp. It's great for little stuff like running a battery charger on the boat or some lights in camp but when I ask it to make drip coffee it's not enough to cut the mustard. It worked for a year and now it's starting to get about halfway done with a pot and the engine stops. It just isn't made to run ful blast for 20 minutes like that trying to run a 1000 watt device. It's a 900 watt generator.
So I'm thinking either get a bigger generator or a big inverter for the truck to make my coffee. That way the heater in the truck is warmed up by the time I'm rolling to the boat launch. Seems like a good idea to me anyway.
Why not? What would you get?
I'm hoping to get an el-cheepo and wear it out like I stole it so NOT the $943 one please.
Lets find one that's 1500 watts and around $100. It's a challenge. Ready?
Go.
