Wondering if I should wait for the inverters and hope they are at a decent price or gamble on the big gen. I do like the idea of the smaller ones being inverters and a lot lighter in weight. But at the price now that Costco has them its hard to pass it up. But if they are loud enough to cause problems with the neighbors or the parks service I will pass. Anyway, what is you take on the noise level??? I guess it runs at full speed all the time vs the smaller inverters, right? BTW thanks for all the info you have graciously provided, all of you!!!
