Love me a kobalt

Can’t go wrong with kobalt. Bought for hurricane season and ready for the power to go out to test this out. Easy to set up and smaller than I expected which makes it easier to store in the garage

Useful Generator.

nicely designed and worked without issues. Was worried it was going to be a bit heavy, but it is now located semi-permanently in the back of my side by side. I just drive to where i need the power.
