Isn't the 3100i only 3 db less than my 3500/4000 at full load?
Not That I expect the HF generator to be wonderful but maybe we shouldn't be so quick to trash everything new. When I started on the board the only acceptable generator discussion was Red vs Blue and any thing else was trash. Back then Champion had the 3500/4000 which was inexpensive, easy starting and reliable, PLUS quieter than any other open frame in its class. The thought of even suggesting it to some that camped in the boonies away from others seemed a slap in the face of a red/ blue owner.
We saw a lot more brands back then, most proved to be junk. Champion however went from unmentionable to one of the three recommended brands. There is even a thread in the Boondocking section asking red or blue and in the end the answer turned out to be yellow. A year ago this would have been unthinkable.
I see any inexpensive inverter as a possibility of a quieter campground. Should the next guy have the HF inverter on eco while charging his battery, I'm pretty sure it'll be quieter than my 3500/4000. As for longevity, who knows. I've been using the same HF saws to do art crating for 10 years, They may not be the most precise but they get the job done.
