Building Silent and High-quality Generators to Enhance Your Lifestyle.
The KIPOR Digital Sinemaster generator set series offer unsurpassed
technology, quality and consumer benefits in the industry.
Power For Today's Electronics The alternator is connected directly to the engine, eliminating the flywheel as in traditional sets.
This design results in a 50% reduction in weight and overall dimensions. Electric power is made
available to a wide range of applications.
Unique Construction Utilizing The Latest Technology
Patented cooling air intake design, smart throttle power management, sound attenuation
construction and inverter style output all combine to produce state-of-the-art portable electric power.
Green Power System
The KIPOR Digital Sinemaster Series is among the most environmentally friendly class of generators
in the marketplace. The two-tiered noise dampening system results in a 10-15 decibel reduction from
traditional generator sets. The high-efficiency combustion system results in ultra-low emissions
Quality Power
KIPOR utilizes inverter technology in the Digital Sinemaster Series generators to produce a pure sine
wave AC output. The inverter unit tightly regulates voltage and frequency. You can rely on the generator
to safely run all electronic equipment including microprocessor controlled appliances and tools
A Wide Range of Benefits
In addition to clean, quiet, and efficient power, KIPOR offers superior overload and low oil level protection.

that generator is not appropriate for use in a campground, with a noise rating of 68-78db!!

it would be great for boondocking, auto races and home backup power though.

Is there a noise level rule? Or is just at certain times?

the OP's quote was: "Very quite unit great for RV etc.".
68db-78db is NOT "very quiet" and not appropriate for RV'ing unless the RV is boondocking with no one around or at a motor race event.

and there's no such thing as an "ultra" quiet generator. even Honda and Yamaha inverter generators aren't quiet, they're just quieter than most other generators.

there's quieter generators and then there's louder generators.

Why are you guys dumping on his ad?

Let the jrizza sell his stuff without your commentary.

Sorry jrizza, not everyone on this forum is that rude!

not dumping on his ad, other than his statement that it's very quiet and great for RV.

just think that interested people should know the truth about its noise rating, before they consider buying it.
many people are unfamiliar with decibel ratings and how they work.

and i did say that it would be great for boondocking or motor races or home backup power.

I feel that you are hurting OPs add by your statements. Are you there to critique the add, if so great. If not leave them be.
