If I use it at home, it would be only for a few absolute necessities - with time management. I primarily wanted something I could throw in the pickup for camping trips where electricity isn't available. === 70 dB is not super quiet, not at all. I was comparing to other portable generators... Like I said, mine is in the low eighties, but it's a 6000. These are reasonably quiet at 53 to 59 dB depending on load level: http://www.electricgeneratorsdirect.com/Honda-EU1000IKC-Portable-Generator/p6548.html 70dB is approximately 10 times louder than 59 dB. Even the small Hondas get annoying after awhile but at 29 pounds are easy to carry and load into a truck. Yeah, but you can stand next to one of those EU1's and have a normal conversation. You can even sleep with one say, 30+ feet away but it costs a lot to have that luxury... |
