At the risk if a thread hijack, I'd like to know more about this little generator. It is not that much more than the ET800 clones that Harbor Freight sells, but Amazon reviewers seem to really like it. It appears not to take up much space (important if it is being used as an emergency secondary generator), and the price is right. Plus, being able to run 8-14 hours on slightly over half a gallon of gas would make it handy/economical for battery charging while boondocking.
I'm sure it isn't as quiet as a red/blue, but for a fifth the price for similar functionality, it would be useful to have on hand.
