This is the first generator built for the military with a Permanent Magnet Generator and variable speed technologies to pass rigorous Government qualification tests. The variable speed technology can produce significant fuel savings at part load (where most generators spend time operating) and can extend engine life.

This is a very quiet generator designed to be used in all military tactical environments. 

All aluminum frame, meant to operate outdoors.

You can select between 120/240V split phase(16 amps), 120V single phase (31 amps) by throwing a selector switch on the generator. The single 120V option is nice if you do not have any 240V loads as you do not have to worry about balancing the phases and can typically use more of the generator power.  

Made to run in any environment imaginable from deserts (sand, high temps, winds, etc) to cold mountain regions at high altitudes.  

EMP Proof - hardened against solar flares (and worse).
