We've got the honda ui10 for the Motorhome whisper quiet
so much so we have to padlock it to the tow bar because inside we can't hear it running It's good to be back from the dark side

Honda generators are good and quiet but not cheap.
Depending where you intend using it, some events are now arguing for diesel generators rather then petrol. I believe the argument for diesel gennys is that they are safer to refuel! High temperatures, smoking especially etc and refuelling petrol tanks not the safest option. Yes I know Darwin awards etc. Brendan |

Wow, really shocked at that. I had to track down a replacement pipe last year and even spoke to a ' kipor' engineer who was very helpful to the point of giving me his mobile number if I got any further problems !!!
Has been a worth while purchase though when you compare retail costs Dave
