Protecting our 2 new generators

I have been researching that also.  The bike "cables" and chains are the locks that are cut the most often.  The "U" locks are the safest (the thicker the better).  My Firman Gen has a plastic handle so putting a U-Lock through it wouldn't offer much protection from a thief with a hacksaw so I made a metal angle-iron cover of the handle and I secure it with a U-lock in my pickup bed.  It's the best you can do and nothing is secure.  It all depends on how badly the thief wants it.  Just make it as difficult as you reasonably can.  Locks made out of 1/2" or more rod are the safest because most bolt cutters won't open far enough to cut them unless they are carrying around the 4' model of bolt cutter, and most thieves carry the 2' models because they are easy to conceal.

Lowes too. Plus 1 to Spydie, you can deter theft, not prevent it, make it difficult for a thief. I have used bicycle locks in past, that's why my bicycle was stolen.

What about the Masterlock Python Cable-lock series of locks.
Has anyone tried one to secure your gennie?

A 4.5 inch battery-powered grinder can defeat most locks and cables.
