Has anyone out there had any experiences with the Extreme Max EXT3000 2800 Electric Start Inverter Generator that is advertised in Trailer Life and the Good Sam Magazine? It seems to be comparable to the Yamaha EF2400iSHC but costs $800 while the Yamaha is around $1300. ------------- Peter |

I'm not familiar with that brand/model, but of all the reviews I've read of non-Yamaha and non-Honda brands, none ever come close to the quietness and reliability of the name brands. Some won't even put out the watts they claim they will (a Champion inverter/genset I saw reviewed). Another drawback - don't count on getting parts and/or service for the off-brands if they break. ------------- Doug ~ '10 171 (2009-2015) ~ 2008 Salem ~ http://www.rpod-owners.com/forum_posts.asp?TID=1723 - Pod instruction manual
