<p class=MsoNormal>Exploring options but I am pretty set on getting the Honda.
If I were to hear about an alternative that was as quiet, as good,
and much less expensive than the Honda I would consider it. Otherwise
I will spend the extra cheddar and get the good stuff. <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>I am EXTREMELY interested in the answer to this question. I
am very much in the market for a generator but have not been able to force
myself to pull the trigger on the Honda Generator yet. I know it is the
"accepted" standard to run RC power sources and chargers but I am
open to other less costly alternatives.<o:p></o:p></p>
