OK this is more RV related, but it will be used at home in emergencies. I want to get a 3-4KW generator for my RV, and I know the top models are the Yamaha and Honda units, but honestly at $2300+ they are pretty much out of my range. I see some units that have been considered reliable for about 1/4 as much. So with that, are the Yamaha's and Honda's 1/4 as quiet and 4 times as reliable?
I also know air cooled motors are more efficient if there is little or no back pressure on the exhaust, but surely one could be muffled enough with no increase in back pressure, right?
Are there some more affordable brands that are quiet and reliable?
