I fully understand that the Yamaha and Honda generators are the Gold Star for Rvers.
We have been RVing for 8 seasons without a generator (Solar is great), but friends bought Champion 2000 from Costco last year. The price looks good to me and the Db do not seem to be too far off a Honda of the same size. 58Db.
The friend's genny did not seem loud to me. Certainly not as loud as a construction genny.
Please share your thoughts.
I will not be running AC of the microwave, just keeping the batteries charged when we are camping in the trees (most our camping is in Foresrty Sites).
The Champion would be just fine. You might want to look at the Champion 3100. People have bought them for $699. They are also large enough to run the A/C and they are quiet.
The Champion 2000 is large enough to run the microwave and is quiet. If you don't need A/C the 2000 would be a good value.
