One of my generators running. PepBoys 1200w Peak (850w rated). It's quiet compared to other larger units and actually has a good sized muffler.
I wouldn't run it overnight in a city neighborhood but, it's quiet enough for day use. It's has a two stroke 2hp gasoline engine that requires a 50:1 oil premix. And, it's quite small. Compare it to the shop lamp in the video for size.

  • do you think this little generator could run a batery charger so i can charge my boat batery. ??

  • @ezkill99 Yes! No problem! As a matter of fact there's a 12v output already built in just for that purpose. (If you want to charge faster then you'd have to buy a charger and plug it into one of the AC outlets, though.)

  • so when a brilliant flash in the sky from a nuke comes this is what you will have? a fan and light? nice! $99 is a steal. I bought the 3000 watt.  At least I'll have cold beer till the end.

  • @ericvonp That's pretty funny. Did you even read any of my text? The very FIRST word in my description is "ONE." This is ONE of my generators! I have three. (NOT BRAGGING, just responding.) My 5KW will do my family nicely until the gas runs out. Really, this one is just a toy. But, it's a really nice toy if you need about a kilowatt of 120v PURE SINE power. Hey, maybe we could share a beer and watch the light show! Take care, man!

  • @DrDave1911 This generator isn't a toy. Its capable of a lot more. I run 2 computer systems during brownouts here in the Islands. My busines depends on this little guy. And it has handled itself well with NO problems.

  • @NBAGOATS Hum, sorry if I came across in a negative fashion.  I might have better said gadget? To me it's just one of my "toys." (Gadgets) And, you're right! Don't underestimate what you can do with a kilowatt! Cheers!

  • Not a bad idea! Those $99 1200W ones are great when you just want to power a few small items. Cause the noiser bigger ones like the 3650 W one I have, would not be feasible use just to run just a few lights and a TV.

  • Is it still running today? Does pep boys still sell these for 99 bucks?

  • Breath in breath out I love exaust hahahaha Nice litler gen man .. it can power your Jacuzzi when the powers out

  • HARBOR FREIGTH TOOLS GOT THEM FOR 89.99 1000 PEAK,850 WATT MAX

  • @ericvonp I connected a refridge and a TV to mine along with 2 cellphone chargers for 3 days straight.
