Best Quiet Generator for Travel Trailer

Also be aware that some places only allow generators a few hours in the morning and a few hours in the evening. First thing I would make sure you have is a fantastic fan.

With that said, do you have a budget in mind? You can spend $1000 on a Honda or $500 on a Champion. Both inverter generators rated at the same. If you will be doing it a lot, save up the money and get the honda. If you will do it a few times a year or less, save the money and go with the champion.

Be aware. IF you plan on dry camping in a primitive camp ground. You will not be allowed to run the generator at night. Also be aware. In a primitive camp ground. there is no such thing as a quiet generator. No matter what kind it is.

Boily 3600 or Champion 3500 inverter. I have the Champion and friends have Boily. Both can run recent model 15k btu a/c.

Yup... kinda expensive but quiet and effective.

Twin 2000 watt Honda's or Yamaha's will do it but if the weight of a Honda 3000 is not too much for you, it is the quietest.

Most generators will show the noise rating at idle and at max throttle. You can use this information to find a quiet one at the best price.

I bought the Honda 2000i (two of them) because I found them to be quieter than others I looked at. If I was buying today I would look at a 3000 watt Yamaha or Honda for reliability.

What size gen do i need?

3kw (3000) Honda or 2 2kw?
Yamaha EF2400iS--will it run a 13.5 air?
Honda EU3000 or Yamaha EF2400is? (2007) Why not cheaper for my needs? (2006)

eu2000 run air 2011
3000 won't run 15k air?
