As camping and RV season takes shape, the thoughts of enjoyment in the great outdoors fills our minds. If you would like to enjoy the convenience of all your favorite electric appliances and electronics, as well as a quiet, rest filled week, a generator may be the answer. The trick is to find a quiet portable gas generator that will not ruin the outdoor experience while it is running, and will provide enough clean power for your stay.In the past, generators were bulky and very noisy, polluting our outdoor adventures with their exhaust fumes and loud motors. Although you can still get a great deal on a generator like this, a better option is to spend more, and purchase a quiet, insulated generator that has high emission standards. Not only will you be rewarded with low noise and a steady flow of the electricity you need for your stay, but you will also be able to enjoy the smells of the forest, rather than gas fumes. Other campers in the area will benefit as well, enjoying their stay more without the disturbance of your noisy generator. There are models on the market that allow you to have a normal conversation sitting only 10 feet away. These units are insulated and designed to be quiet. Depending on how much power you will need for your trip, you can find very lightweight and quiet portable gas generators that will take up very little room. More wattage normally equals more weight, so be aware of that if you will be transporting your generator.For occasional home use in the case of a power outage, just about any generator will do. If you do happen to experience outages more often, or live in a commercial area where the loud rumblings of a generator motor would be a problem, a quiet portable generator may be a better option.The best way to know just how quiet a generator will be is to check the manufacturer specs for decibel ratings. Finding a model that is under 75 decibels will run very quietly. The top models also offer fuel efficiency built in, slowing the motor to only supply the power needed at a given time. This not only increases fuel efficiency, but gives you the quietest experience possible.In the end, although you will spend more to purchase a high efficiency and quiet portable gas generator over a cheaper model, the benefits are numerous. Experiencing the great outdoors as it should be, while still enjoying some of the comforts of home, makes every trip more enjoyable. If you should ever need the generator for home use, it will be readily available, and easy to move. Your neighbors may not even know you are running it at all.
