Ok, so I picked up a set of warmers :thumbup:
Now I need something to run them with... I know the Honda 2000i is sort of the cream of the crop but it's like a grand :wtf:
Anything else out there that's not brutally loud but somewhat reasonable in price?

These guys are supposedly the OE manufacturer for Honda: http://www.americanrvcompany.com/Kipor- ... _1519.html - almost "reasonable"

I have looked at the different generator and the Honda and Yamaha's are the best and the most quiet.

any gen rated high enough will get the job done but you and everyone will be listening to it all day.

there were some highly recommended gens being sold on wera for less than $400 but were at the southern tracks. shipping wouldn't be feasibly.

I'll see if i can find it.

BTW, did you get the woodcraft warmers?

Anyone ever see these? I know we've been beating this to death in the tire warmer thread but I figured I'd post in this one where it sort of belongs..

Wildfire may not have any 1800's in stock until Mid-October, so I'm looking at this guy. Sustained 1200 Watts (my warmers pull 1150) and 66 db (not great, but not awful - the Honda's 59 db)...

for that price and 66dB seems very reasonable - I may just get one and see what I think. I'm guessing I could always get a few bucks back out of it if I'm unhappy with it.
