Hi Esued -- I've moved your post to its own topic.
What kind of boat do you have? And what kind of generator? What's wrong with the one you have?

Buy something quiet! My Original Equipment (OE) generator is so loud I would never be able to sleep with it running.
I second the EU2000 for a portable or temporary solution.

Never ran it at night. Put it on the transom and put a safety rope to the frame of my bimini while charging the batteries up. I can understand the need to run at night in Florida for sure. I had started looking for a plastic pan to put it in for the swimstep if I went to that need of night running.
