The Briggs & Stratton Q6500 inverter generator provides clean power during power outages. This is a great affordable and portable option for emergency backup home power. This inverter is unique as it comes equipped with a 240V locking outlet which isn't as common in its size. The generator is 60% quieter than conventional open-framed generators, it's 30% lighter, and 45% more compact. The included wheels and telescopic handle make this generator easy to transport. The Co-Gaurd Carbon Monoxide Shutdown technology protects you from harmful carbon monoxide by shutting down the generator if it detects harmful levels.
