Champion C46540 Portable Generator
MARTYSTOWRIG was wondering what kind of Portable Generator I have. So thought you all would like to have this info.
Here's a link to the RV Net Forums; Tech Issues, 3000 watt Chinese Gensets Info.
That is now 158 pages......I would start at 158 and read backward.

I bought my Champion C46540 because of the info I found here...Note; that Champion has good parts & service...
The other Chinese Gensets cost about the same, but have NO parts or service.
I bought the first one set up for RV's (C46540) sold in WA. for under $300 bucks. Have about 10 hours on it and really like the unit.

Sorry to say that is not a question you want to ask at RV World or Camping World or any sales people. All they want to do is sell you a Mega Buck Generator.....and will tell you the Chinese Gensets are a bad buy.....I know I asked....
I come to find out this was not true. The Forum I listed was about 3000 watt Chinese Gensets. Were they any good or just junk. Now this forum has been going on a long while. Some of the guys know there stuff.
Anyway, just thought this was some good info to pass on incase some wanted to get a Generator for back up. Without spending a lot of money.

MARTYSTOWRIG, if I said 4000, I am sorry. Should have said 3500. I still feel it a good deal for a standby Gen unit.
