Comparing etrailer.com Portable Inverter Generator to Predator

Question:

I am pretty sure that I know the answer... But where is this unit made.. Also I have been looking at the Harbour Freight gen. Predator 3500. Why should I buy yours, other than it is cheaper and has a better warranty... REALLY love that you explain all aspects of all that you sell... thanks for your time

The etrailer.com generators are produced for etrailer by Firman generators. Firman is an American owned company that has engineered its own product but outsources the production process to overseas facilities. I honestly am not familiar enough to speak on the Predator generator set from Harbor Freight, its features or quality.

The 4,500-Watt Portable RV Generator - 3,600 Running Watts, # 333-0005 is a propane or gas fueled unit with electric start feature. The # 333-0005 generator's engine starts up easily at the push of a button. Simply turn the fuel valve to "on" and flip the engine switch to the "run" position. Then, push the battery power restore switch for a few seconds and release. Once you press the start button, the generator will turn on.

Please take a look at the linked product review videos.
