I just picked up a yamaha 2800i for too good a price to pass up. I was originally after the 2400i suitcase model but apparently yamaha is out of stock Queensland wide. Now while its nowhere as rude a noise at full load as an old Dunlight or a lot of the chinese cheapies its still around 67 db at 7meters which is a bit louder than swmbo likes.
This will mainly be used for backup power for the house running fridge, a few fans, led lights and the all important home sewerage system.
In the military we used to dig a hole and stick them in there for noise abatement, my problem is when the power go's out here it's usually got a lot to do with very excessive rain and high winds and or floods, so a hole wont work in this case.
So does anyone have any ideas on a weather resistant structure that lets air in, exhaust and heat out and cuts down on noise? It must also be moveable and sit within 2 meters of the house power box. ( it will have a change over relay fitted).
Over to you the knowledge base.
