On startup when the burner ignition coil is going it draws about 1kVA. For only for about 30 seconds. Then drops back to 660VA and 280 watts or so.
The power factor is .44 so I'm thinking this could be a good candidate for power factor correction since it's just motors and solenoids.

Remember go by Volt Amps that's all generators and inverters care about.
Volt Amps are the load applied to the power generator, watts are what actually gets the work done.
