Thanks for all of the great (albiet mind boggling) info on the Chinese generators.
Yesterday I purchased the Powerwise 3500 from Kragen. $299 to purchase directly from the store. $229 if ordered off the website and pick up in store. Of course I went home and ordered it off the website!
It was a floor unit and discovered that the front feet were missing from the portability kit along with two sets of bolts/nuts/washers to install the wheels/axles. Two wood blocks and some wire temporarily solved that issue.
The fuel line plug thingie leaked, but thanks to the forum I already knew how to immediately tighten the plug. The oil fill plug is awkward. According to the diagram it appeared that you needed to tip the generator on it's side to fill.
The generator started on the 3rd pull. The noise level was approximate or less than the lawn tractor, lawn mower. It was definitely less than the weed whacker! I ran the trailer (19 foot Komfort Lite) a/c; all the lights; stereo. A small change in the generator sound when the a/c first turn one, then it returned to normal. I did not try the microwave at the same time.
They have some decent priced ramps at Harbor Freight that I'll go pick-up tomorrow morning. That should make it easy to load into the trailer or van.
I look forward to the dogs and I staying cool at the show this weekend, along with the benefits of not having to hunt down an elusive eletrical outlet for the grooming implements!
Thanks for all the help!!
