Hey oldman,
If you read the entire thread you will see the reason for the generator purchase. We do not boondock and the generator will be used for circumstances beyond our control. If I was going to be using it in a primitive CG I would have purchased a better known brand but this one will do and I am sure once i build the "box" it will be every bit as quiet as the name brand models. Did you also notice that it is a propane generator so there will not be the annoying odor of spilled gasoline and gas genny exhaust. What it loses in one area it makes up in another.
