Wondering about genny

The gen in our Warrior is right under my wife's side of the bed. We're not allowed to fire it up until she gets up in the morning. It also puts out a lot of heat under the bed.

On our cyclone the genset (5500 onan) is right under the master bed. If we are parked and unhooked the genset isn't bad at all. But if i'm hooked to the hdt and running the genset (which is the usual scenario) it is pretty loud. I think the sound bounces off the back of the truck and back into the 5er.

We can still sleep but you absolutely can hear it running. I wouldn't consider it a deal breaker; but if there was an option or way to quiet down the genset I would consider it.

that is true Pap about the AC unit. they are noisy really and constant most times and I am used to that. :)

I would be using it selectively at night most times anyway. probably not something I would have on constantly.

I was wanting to hit a few national parks and use genny when necessary only.

I can't speak for that model or arrangement, but we have our 4000 located at the rear (pretty much under the floor of our bedroom), and it's going to be noisy, but it's not really all that bad.
I think the A/C makes almost as much noise.....and you really do get used to just about anything, as long as it's a constant...such as a loud rain (without the thunder), so I'd guess that you'd get used to this too.
I work on a Tugboat, so I'm used to having generators or engines running while I sleep:B
I'm not sure how much more noise the 5500 makes, though I'm also guessing that the newer RVs have better insulation and sound deadening.

Hopefully, someone with that set up can comment.
