Only $299.99 at Walmart! That's a good $150+ savings over what these normally sell for.

Really killer price on a small and quiet inverter generator for camping and RV usage where low noise is really important. I really like that you can buy a parallel kit which allows you to run a pair of these in parallel so you can power larger appliances as needed. Expansion capabilities are always a good thing.

Home Depot has these for $454.59

Quiet Operation

Absolutely NEVER use a generator inside or even in a garage, it is recommended you keep it 20 feet from windows but at the very least you must be outside and have the exhaust pointed away from you. This could run a small space heater but wouldn't, for example, run a fridge and space heater and other devices
There's something to be said for "throw aways". A Honda repair will likely cost you more than this. I had a Honda generator fail in warranty. Dealer had it for 2 months. When I got it back, it leaked oil everywhere. Back to the dealer for another month. Finally sent a fax to president of Honda North America. Got the generator back soon afterward, but it was never right (still leaked, hard to start). Finally bought a knock off that has performed well. Yes, Honda has a good reputation, and I have several of their products, but these days, there's competition.
I'm rebuilding my Grampa's old Cold War shelter just in case, this will make a great addition, I'm sure all those Texans could have used something like this.

Note: you'll be hard pressed to find a cheaper 1800 Watts and 2250 Peak Watts inverter anywhere. Nice find

This is a good wattage as it can run many types of small heaters or a portable AC unit and has a small footprint.

Quote from nerds :
I don't know... the price is great!!! But when you need power you need power and I have being let down by low quality china, I'm gonna save up for a honda or yamaha and buy something I can rely on for 20 years vs this, how do you get parts for china sourced generator 5 years down the road? Or what if you need to replace the inverter down the road, you've got a piece of garbage on your hand the moment it breaks.... It's a gamble and I wish all good luck who buy...
Spend the $36 on Walmart's replacement/repair warranty?

I couldn't find anything even close to this price when I was looking. Everything else is $400-1000, with the Chinese Honda clones like this one in the $400-600 range.

When will these type of generators be able to work in split phase when paired with a second unit? Hybrid solar inverters are already doing it.

Can someone point me in the right direction of a similar generator, but has 220v? I need something to run my pool pump when the power is out. This would be plenty of watts, but the pump is 220v. Thanks.
