That EX650 is a wonderful design from an earlier era of generators. We carry one in our motorhome all the time for coach battery charging whenever we don't want to run the built-in Onan or idle the main engine with it's alternator for charging. At a full load 3600 RPM noise spec of 54dB, it's almost in a class by itself on quietness - including the modern inverter generators.
Off topic, but our EX650 will run a hair dryer set to LOW, or our 45 amp RV converter to power most 12V items when drycamping, and some other 120V items when drycamping -> EXCEPT FOR our RV's Norcold refrigerator .... which for some reason will not switch over to pure electric power whenever the RV's shore cable is plugged into the EX650. Does anyone know what is the cause of this strange reaction from the Norcold?
