Hi Folks: I finally have an enclosed trailer - 28ft ATC. I need to find a resonably -->quiet<-- 3500 - 4000 watt generator for the compartment. I know Hondas are quiet, but I spent all my money on the trailer. Can you help? Thanks Tom
Hey Tom,
I would agree with the rest Honda and Yamaha make a great quiet inverter style generator, BUT like you said if you don't have the budget right now take a look at the Champion 3500/4000 generator. I have one and can recommend it very highly, yep it’s a Chinese knock of a Honda engine. CPE offers excellent customer service and parts should you need them are available. This unit is not Honda quiet but it is not Briggs Stratton load, some where in the middle at I believe 68db. You can find these for around $300-$350. Good Luck, Bill
