I’m actually in the market for one. Are they good quality though? I don’t want to purchase an off brand and have it die at the tailgate.

Everything at a Dirtpecker tailgate dies , respect - dignity ... and finally Hope .
I often wonder when y'all are stumbling through that awful abandoned warehouse district .. is there at least one tailgate set up with tetanus shots available ? Would be on point if there were .
Busted pallets and broken glass and all .

You are talking about the old farmers market. We do not tailgate in a warehouse district and we do not stumble over broken glass and pallets. You must not have been since 2012 or seen all of the modifications and additions made to the stadium and surrounding areas. Mostly grass and trees now and I tailgate under a large oak on grass at
The VA Armory right on the other side of the renovated old farmers market.

I lived in Forest Acres from 93 to 97 and then again for 8years from 2000 to 2007 . What I can tell you is tjat no amount of lipstick could pretty THAT pig . You can plant as many unnatural located Palmetto trees as you want , that place is surrounded by a ghetto and a bunch of industrialization.
#facts
Also , not having a stadium located on your campus gives it a non-cozy feeling , exacerbated by the vagrants wandering through the tailgates .
Yes , that is me in my photogragh . Here's me too .

The chicken coop is located in the bowels of cooterville, just up the road from the cooterville sewage treatment plant and closed landfill. CH4 gas is constantly oozing out of all the pvc pipes in the area.
The coots could not find a better place for the cockroach. Fits right in.
Empty warehouses and Arthur town all around.
The entire hood is an embarrassment to college football. Would not want to walk through the area at night without a 12 gauge and at least 5 friends.
These are the facts.

This is all garbage propaganda. I lived in the Woodlands off of bluff road during college and never had any problems. Sometimes walked to the stadium on gameday. That was the best area for off campus apartments and partying at the time. Since then, they have built up some really nice college apartments near five points and downtown. We live in the state capital, in a decent sized city, and our campus is spread it through the city. We are not a small college town like Clemson or UGA where our campus is all together and football stadium is on campus.

I'm afraid you have that backwards. Willy Brice is an embarrassment to an otherwise perfectly fine ghetto hood!

Anything else you get what you pay for. People will tell you the other brands are not much louder but they are.
I had a 20 yr old honda 6500 , 650 watts that ran like a champ. Changed the oil twice, never gave me problems.. was enough to run a tv, satelite, and 1 other low powe device.
If all you need to run is a tv set up, get one of these battery jumpers with an AC outlet.
I used one at the orange bowl a few years ago and it ran the tv for 8 hrs .

Dootel Bug Dootel Bug your house is on fire! Everything about usuck is akin to a festered boil with a bandage on top. When you remove the bandage the festered boil is still there. Crawl back in your dumpster and close the lid behind you!

As I feel the same way about clemson, yet I’ve never set foot on your campus or driven through. Never seen it.

No1 runs troller motors in lot 16. Both will work for tailgating. .

The deep cycle will last longer, but the jump starter will provide more functuality before it craps out.
I ran a 32 inch led tv off a small crappy jump box, with a $12 crappy walmart dc/ac converter for at least 6 hrs. ..I have no idea how long it would have lasted.
That jump box is still going strong 2 years later. ...however I only used it twice in this fashion. Have no idea how many times it would take to crap out.

Re: I have had this one for three years now.

We have one of these that we use to provide auxiliary power to our travel trailer. I've owned it for 4+ years and have never had any issues with it. I would recommend them.
However, if I were to do it again, I would buy the Westinghouse 2500.
https://www.westinghouseportablepower.com/shop/all-products/igen2500/
It would be WAY overkill for a tailgate, but would allow us to run our TT AC off grid. Given our elevation (5,000' at my house), and generator power loss as one goes up in elevation, the little ryobi is just a few watts short of being able to do it.

I recommend buying five of those $88 Harbor Freight generators in lieu of one reliable Honda, Yamaha, or Ryobi and as one conks out just toss it in the closest trashcan. Who cares if your neighboring tailgaters can't hear, their eyes burn, and can't breathe!

Re: For the guy asking about the price!!!

That is the right price if you have the coupon that can be printed from the Harbor freight tool web site. Or, just bring up the site while in the store, and they will scan it from your phone. That is the way that I do it, and I don't have to bother with printing the coupon!!!
P/S This is mainly for the guy that sent the T-Mail asking about the price, I accidentally deleted the T-Mail.
