how many watts does pit use during startup?

how many watts to power up and get fire going? could u use torch instead of hot rod?
I haven't yet recevied my yoder ys 640 comp. yet .I was just trying to get a generator that matches up to it well and my cook trailer for competitions, also does it use many watts after startup? should I look at a inverter generator for clean power for electronic system in pit? This is first pellet smoker ive ever used, also the first one ive ever ordered!!! lol

200 watts for 5 minutes after pushing the START button, and a continuous 50-60 watts for the duration of the cook.

Sine wave inverter is not required.
