I was told it is 1 db lower than a Honda. Also, the parallel Cables are included.
I guess for some reason you're saying "dcb" to mean decibel, the unit of measurement used when determining genset noise level. However, no reputable generator manufacturer offers a single noise rating when the industry standard is taken @ 23' (7 metres) with the engine running at it's lowest ECO speed and also at full tilt under full load. The fact this Powerhorse generator is advertised with just one rating should be a tip off ... second is the name "Powerhorse" which is a ripoff of the very similar but much better quality, though very noisy, Powerhouse brand of generators. FWIW the Honda EU2000i is rated 53 db to 59 db using the industry standard measurement techniques. For anyone who believes this Powerhorse generator is anywhere near as capable, or as quiet, as the Honda EU2000i then I have some swamp land in Florida I can sell you at a great price. Trust me, it's a great deal! :W
