Decibels test-unscientific but shows a quiet campground friendly generator

That sounds exactly like a 2 stroke dirt bike idling.

I would guess that most modern inverter generators would be reasonably quiet, the market seems to have exploded with a hundred different brands over the last few years.

I thought the same thing when I first heard it. Reminded me of a Honda dirt bike quietly idling But most other generators I heard sounded more like lawn mowers or leaf blowers. Or they were quiet, but the exhaust had a louder or higher pitch sound than a Honda, predator or this Westinghouse.

All over the country this summer and by far, the Top generator on the east coast based upon the number in use is currently the Predator 3500 from Harbor Freight. My best guess why is that it will run the AC which is a must on the East coast in the summer. Honda #2 and everything else after that.
