•63dB sound rating ensures low operational noise for peace and quiet


Peace and Quiet?! Compared to what? dropping a stack of dishes in a night-club?

I'll stick with my 49db Honda EU3000is.

Only problem with the Honda 3k it doesn't put out 30 amps. It wont run a 15k AC, electric water heater, ref on electric and the coffee pot all at the same time. With my 4300 I don't have to think which appliance to turn off while my wife uses a hair dryer

A paired set of Honda Eu2000I's would, though. That same pair of Eu2000i's purrs when running my 13.5k A/C. The 15k is only a hard draw when overcoming the compressor stall speed amp draw. And if you really want to, you can hook together 3 Eu2000i's. Run however gennies you need for the amount of load you're drawing.

You won't make many friends with 63db or whatever that thing runs at. It sounds contractor grade, not quiet camping grade.

Running electricity that you generate to heat water for coffee or the water heater is a poor use of the resource... propane is much more efficient, converting gas to mechanical energy to electricity to heat is exceedingly inefficient in the use of gasoline.

Get a french press coffee maker for $20 and use the propane to heat water for the shower. That makes a bigger noisy generator a mute point.
