You need to contact MUFON. TODAY ! file a report so they can get investigators out there. The longer you wait, the quicker any evidence will be disappearing. Check for footprints, disturbed vegetation, broken tree limbs and anything else out of place. I would also contact the former occupants of the home and ask them if they experienced anything unusual while they were there. And get one of these Oh yeah, one more thing.
Here's an 1800w one. Actually cheaper than yours. https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00T7VT450/ref=psdcmw_348967011_t2_B01M8L2RTS. Good point about the inrush. Not something you typically concern yourself with. I'll need to do some thinking. Not sure my hoa actually allows it.
Hopefully this starts a conversation about acceptable volume, because I really want to take a generator this year but don't want to be 'that guy'
This volume rating is 63 dB = conversational speech
My gas generator WEN 1800W is rated at the same exact volume rating.

The other one I have is at 60db:

I was also looking at portable A/C units which seem to have a volume around 53 dB (Refrigerator Volume)
Our main reason for wanting one is to put a little portable A/C unit in the tent in the mornings so we can sleep in beyond ~8am and also charge phones, etc.
You'd figure that if our A/C Unit is at 53 dB and we have our generator next to the fire lane on the other side of our car that we won't even be hearing it in our tent, but I'm more concerned about disrupting neighbors than our own camp.
Anyone have any experience with this brand of generator? I'm looking to get a generator to work a TV for a small tailgate my friends and I are having in a few weeks. Price seems too good to be true for the reviews it has.
What's the draw here?
This is available on Amazon and is half the price. For just 500W difference.
