The decibel output of this generator at 7M is 73db. The fuel tank has a 6.6 gallon capacity and the generator will run for approximately 9 hours at half load. All outlets are UL approved and there are 4 total outlets: One L5 30R 120V , one 5 20R 120V Duplex receptacle, one L14 30R 220V and a 12V DC automotive style outlet.
