I'm debating one of the big ones so I can plug a power strip into it and run a couple things that don't have transformers built in.
How heavy duty do I need to go?

I am on my second one. If you're not pluggin in a washing machine, the small size will do. I bought a heavy-duty one, and it always buzzed. Drove me nuts until I recently replaced it with a smaller one. Runs my stereo and 12" sub just fine, anyway.

Yah.. and price.

The small one I have has 1000 on the front. The big one 2000.

Smaller is cheaper.

Unless you're plugging in a couple of big appliances, I don't think you need a big one.
