Have not seen any posts in the last couple of months but keep an eye out for either a new Kipor 2000 or used Honda 2000i; there were some of the later on eBay about a month ago and some went in the 400 to 500 range as I recall -- I wasn't looking for them specifically so didn't really pay a lot of attention to them. Might also want to look at Craigslist for Kansas and MO, possibly OK area -- with the big ice storm we had back in December, a lot of Honda and Yamaha inverter generators were purchased and will probably be coming on the market shortly.
The 2000 models are light enough to carry easily, VERY quiet, and will do what you are asking. Plus, with either Honda or Yamaha, you can add a 2nd one of the same model and parallel them together to run your AC in those warmer days..
Whatever you do, try to stay away from 'construction' grade generators (i.e. SAMS, Home Depot, Lowes) as these are normally very noisy and you will have neighbors upset at the very least.
Hope this helps some.
