oh, on this point I suspect that these really quiet little inverter gennys
are mostly silenced by three variables
1) small engine size
2) good muffler design
3) good housing insulation and vibration damping
I don't boondock a whole lot either, but I do find that I would likely run the genny more than I do if it were quieter....
The onan isn't too bad. OK if sitting way back on the edge of a parking lot, but there are times when i'm wanting to be a little less conspicuous....
and I wish it was more in line with the little hondas, or my V-10 even at fast idle....
such as sitting at a water park or beach parking lot, resting with my youngest, while DW and the other kids are still playing...
