need help buying a generator for camping
I am looking to buy a generator to run an AC (and a blender/coffee maker) in my tent, to protect against the desert heat. Too many options/ name brands out there to choose from. I do prefer something that is quiet and reasonable priced.
Any suggestions on which name brand is good to use? I will probably use it 3-4 times a year? How long do these thing usually last and how much gas do they use? I will probably need it to run a good 8 hours each day for 3 days.

Honda Generators are sooooo quiet. Actually I do not think there is a better generator on the market. In fact I tend to sleep better in my Dads pop up camper during hunting season we run it and it helps to cancel out other noise as well. |

I paid about a grand for a 2000 watt Honda generator. Expensive but worth it.

The Honda is good. Be sure to put the right fuel in it. Mix vs regular
