Depends on how much power you want
A Genrac 1000 (if you can find it) is a fully enclosed with a 4=stroke engine and has a noise rating about the same as a Honda EU-2000i.
The Genrac 900 should also match that noise level
Both run a long time on a tank gas (I really do not know as I never timed it but I ran six hours with a 300 watt load and less than a full tank).
The 1000 actually charged my battries (progressive Dynamics 9180 with wizard converter is supposed to be too big for a Honda 1000). and ran my electric chain saw.. That would trip the breaker if the chain jammed (10 amps) to the genny was putting out the full 1,000
Alas.. it grew legs.
