I only run my generator where the sound is not a problem and anyone within 200 feet of me is too close anyway. If I need to run it full time, I move to a cooler place or a park with hookups.
That's considerate of you. Thanks. I'm now within 400' of 3 of these construction site generators, and the Champion is by far the loudest of them all.
I'm sure more will be moving in tomorrow. I may have to leave.. we'll see.
I never park within 400' of people running any brand of generator. Thanks for the report but you cannot hear my generator from 400' in any direction. Sixty long paces and the sound is gone. As a surveyor, I know about what 200' looks like and as a contractor, I know what real contractor generators sound like. I also realize it is popular to slam what others own.
Well put, Tom. I like to hear a man speak the truth. I wonder if all the people who are complaining about loud generators use a generator at all. If they don't, I see where they could be annoyed but if they do, and they don't have a problem spending $2k to $3k, much more on a generator, it would be awful snobbish/self-centered of them to look down on someone trying to accomplish the same thing but with a smaller budget to work with. I hope there aren't any people like that on here.
