I'm waiting for some manufacturer to introduce a portable generator dust cover that doubles as a noise shield - Perhaps a 2-piece enclosure that expands outward when the generator is running, and collapses for generator storage. The outside would be rigid and rain-tight, and the inside would be lined with sound-absorbing material.
Most folks buy a dust/weather cover for their portable generator anyway - So why not buy one that also reduces noise?
There is such a device that is being manufactured and distributed by a new start-up generator accessory company called SuperGen. It is called a GenTent. I do not think it is ready for shipment yet but do know it should be available by July as the vendor will be at the big Woodall's/Trailer Life Rally in Louisville to display their wares. I will also be at the rally as a media representative for Woodall's and will be sure to get any info I can to share on the thread. Sharing should not be a problem as RV.net, Trailer Life, Motor Home, Woodall's, Good Sam, Camping World and The Rally are all part of Affinity Media.
It is amazing the e-mail I get from China Vendors and other places related to generators and accessories. Most of the time I don't even need to ask for info, it just lands in my in-box. I guess 5 plus years of Shepherding this thread has created the impression that I am a contact person for all this stuff. In any event, I share what I get so we can make the appropriate decisions as to what to buy or ignore. If this SuperGen company flys we should see some really neat and exciting accessories for our 3,000 watt Chinese gensets that have not been available elsewhere. Right now their Web Site doesn't show anything but a front page. They tell me it will be completed "soon" with all the products listed. :)
The more I think about this 'SuperGen' the more I look forward to a review and recommendation from our new media man for 'Affinity' our Professor95. Hope this thing flys and will soothe all ears of campers near a noisy generator. That will be the day we will all appreciate and will give us a happy outing in the world of 'quiet'. In the persent time, some of us folks will prod along to find some answers to lower the noise factor of the portable gensets now on the market. SuperGen, might sound good?
