For the homeowner who just wants to economically power his house while the grid is down, the Westinghouse WH5500 Portable Gas enerator is ideal.  It is quite portable and quiet enough to use while RVing too.  These new Westinghouse models are very popular and for good reason.

This Powermate PM0497000.04 Honda GX390 powered generator is perfect for anyone on a fairly tight budget that really does want a Honda engine powering the generator that they will be relying on to keep their home and family safe and comfortable when the power goes out.  Most homes can be run on the output of this generator, so you do not have to sacrifice comfort to use it safely.
