The HomeSite Power 2400 is a small yet efficient power supply designed to be extremely safe and highly portable. This generator offers a strong output capable of powering many small devices. This is excellent for the home camp site, vacations, and anywhere portable power is needed. It is also great for emergency or backup power.

It is powered by a 6.5 hp OHV gasoline engine that can produce up to 2200 watts of peak AC power and 2000 watts of rated power. This OHV engine is quite efficient with runtimes of up to 13 hours @ rated load on its mid-sized 4 gallon tank. In addition to its AC output, this model also features a 12 volt DC output. This is perfect for charging batteries.

The noise level can be an important factor when used in close proximity to neighbors. However, this model excels in this area. On a full load from 23 feet it has a noise level of only 68 dBA. This should easily be tolerable for most people.

It weights 99 pounds; however, there is an optional wheel kit for mobility. This is highly recommended to consumers who plan on transporting this beast. It also comes equipped with an oil alert system that automatically shuts off the generator if the oil gets too low. This is extremely important because a shortage of oil can cause the engine to overheat which often results in costly repairs.
