jason the filter freak March 22, 2008 Share March 22, 2008 so this makes a $300 generator $150? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davelin315 March 22, 2008 Share March 22, 2008 Anyone have any opinions on the quality of this generator? For that price... it's either a deal or... can't think of anything that rhymes with deal that is bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sea Monkey March 23, 2008 Share March 23, 2008 http://www.cabelas.com/reviews-cdn/8815/522130/reviews.shtml I love cabelas!! I know it's the 3500 watt model but the reviews for the 4000 watt should be comparable. That's a H-E-double hocky sticks of a deal. The 3500 watt model at Cabelas is $350. BTW, I'm out in Purcellville and we have lost power about 5 times this winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevearlen March 23, 2008 Share March 23, 2008 I was looking for a generator. ugh. looks like the rebate is for "in-store only" only http://www.partsamerica.com/ and their brick & mortar stores are out west. Advanced AUto Part is a partner but the rebate coupn does not seem to include them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest satellite62 March 24, 2008 Share March 24, 2008 I have a cheap generator (6500 watts) and have been using it for 8 years in emergencies. There are a couble of things to consider. The rated output is usually for a short surge and the continous output will be lower so make sure it will cover your requirement. Noise: cheapies are very loud, I live out in the mountains with 15 acres, my neighbor is several hundred yards away but he complains of the loud noise when I am running it.

Highland Reefer March 24, 2008 Share March 24, 2008 My 6500 W just keeps up with one compressor we use for nail guns and a one other heavy draw power tool. If we add another one on it bogs down. The next generator I buy will be at least a 10k unit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
