Champion has released a new model genset in Canada. I have not seen one in person, but the lead ad paper really looks good. It has a twist lock adapter for RV use. New front panel meter with a "parameter switch" to select volts, frequency in Hz or curent load. Also has a low oil alert signal in addition to the shutdown switch. Like my 40008, this a 120 volt only genset with the new alternator head that has the cleanest output waveform I have yet to see on a Chinese built genset. Full amperage is available from a single outlet.
No info on cost yet, but if they are distributed through Costco stores in Canada, the price should be very competive with previous models.
Don't know when a similar model will make it to the lower 48. Looks like our friends to the north got the model jump on us this time. BTW, CSA standards are different than EPA and CARB. This model cannot be sold in the states without additional certification.
