Sounds like the Honda Handi they came out with a few years back. Louder and more expensive that the EU3000is and pretty much identical to the Champion 3100i that sells for $799.
The Honda Handi EU3000i weight is 78 lbs. IT's dB at rated load is 65.
The Honda EU3000is which is 134 lbs. It's dB at rated load is 58.
You cannot compare the Champion to the Honda. Champion dB readings are taken at 23 feet. Honda dB ratings are taken at 9 feet.
You can go on Honda's web site and order a brochure. On page 16 at the bottom of the page you'll find the below statement "Noise levels at rated load to reflect noise level possible, measured at 9 feet(3 meters) from the control panel side of the generator.
