Honda EU3000 vs Champion 2800 you Won't Believe It!
This video is a sound test of Honda EU3000 vs Champion 2800 watt inverter generators. We used a decibel meter to log what the sound levels were at various times. The generators were tested using a 1725 watt 2 PVC heater. This provided a constant and equal load.

RV Generators and what we learned
#retrorvrecon
RV Generators and what we learned.
In this video we go over how Hurricane Ida taught us which of the three portable generators that we tried is best for our 30amp Retro RV. We tested the Honda EU2200I, Honda EU3000IS and the Champion 3650W. We show starting each generator and compare the noise levels. We discuss which of the three portable generators is best to power our camper at home and while camping.
Check out the video and tell us what you think, we would like to hear other experiences.

Predator 3500 Inverter Generator
We decided it was time to pick up a generator. We were leaning hard towards a Honda, Yamaha, or Champion, but couldn't say no to the price of a Predator from Harbor Freight.
I unbox it, get it running, then do a break-in oil change. Overall we are VERY happy with it so far.

We measure the sound using a decibel meter app on our iphone from 23 feet away from the generator.

Harbor Freight Predator inverter generator compared to Champion Inverter generator
Harbor Freight Predator 3500/3000 watt inverter generator compared to Champion 100233 - 3400/3100 Watt Inverter Generator.
I ended up with the Champion because the Predator died 6 months after I bought it. Never used it just break in and monthly warm ups. It was replaced but not until after my first RV trip. It died the day before the trip during the test run. So I ran out and bought the Champion to break it in for the no hook up site.
Now I have redundancy if one breaks I will have a back up.
Likewise My Ecoworth solar controller also lasted a few months dying the week before the first trip. ( )
I eventually replaced it with a very awesomely impressive Victron Blutooth one. ( )
I will buy a back up solar controller for when I am retired on long trips. Redundancy is the key word there again.

Predator 3500 Watt Super Quiet Inverter Generator from Harbor Freight
We got rid of our Champion 4k Generator and got a Predator 3500 Inverter/Generator! The Predator 3500 watt inverter/Generator is way quieter. It is also more fuel efficient.
The predator 3500 Inverter/Generator features electric start, a 2.8 Gallon fuel tank and super quiet at 57db.
So far it runs perfectly. I recommend the predator 3500 Inverter/Generator for RV and camping. I got it at Harbor freight but is also available at Amazon under various labels.

Our Inception:
We downsized from a three bedroom house in November 2017 to a 2000 Fleetwood Southwind Class A. We dubbed her Southwind Sally. We did some minor renovations with paint and adding new window treatments. In December 2018 we purchased our fifth wheel. It is a 2014 Forest River Columbus 320 RS by Palomino. In February 2020 we hit the road before the COVID-19 Pandemic lockdowns started.
Those lockdowns forced us to hold up at the Tinker, AFB FamCamp in Oklahoma until May. We hit the road again traveling to Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Indiana (where we had floor work done on the Columbus), Ohio and Michigan. We decided we were going to try and make it to Colorado to see the sights, and made our way there. This is when we decided to create our channel.
We have been watching our favorite YouTube channels for years and decided maybe we should start to capture our own adventures. That decision produced our channel Compass Roadz and our first video.
