Anyone need a portable generator?
« on: August 22, 2022, 12:06:45 PM »
I'm not pimping or selling, and I can't make a rec based on experience regarding the quality of this thing, but I can't believe how inexpensive this thing is.
Yea, it's 100% chinesium for sure, but it's 200 bucks with FREE shipping if you have an amazon prime thing.
Anyway, just wanted to share in the case that one of you needs a generator for camping or something else.  I seriously doubt you'll ever find a used generator this cheap, let alone a new one. considering shipping costs, they are dang near giving these away. They may be totally junk, I have no idea. But the engine alone is almost worth the cost.

Amazon is kind of hit or miss when it comes to quality. I purchased some great stuff from Amazon but I've gotten my share of duds. At least they make it easy to return stuff

When I looked at it yesterday, it was $300. No joke.

It didn't take 'em long to figure out they were losing pretty good coin at that price.
