How many decibels (how much noise) does it produce?

mine was very quiet while it was working but it got too hot and melted the wiring and burnt a spot on my carpet.

I am not sure on decibels but sometimes it will start at a very high pitched buzzing noise then eventually go silent. It's almost as if it's warming up. I do not recommend putting near outlets that seemed to set it off more. Once it gets going it is almost silent. More quiet than my tiny 8 inch fan.

I can't give you a decibels answer, but I can tell you that had it been in my bedroom at night, I would have used earplugs. It's not terribly loud, but if you're a light sleeper, it might be annoying. It worked relatively well in the 11x12 soap- curing room I used it in, but wouldn't do more than that. A window air conditioner worked better.

Pretty loud, Robert. I don't know the actual decibels but we definitely hear it inside the house. For convenience of operation and to have it out of sight, I permanently installed the generator under our house entrance deck but would now recommend building or buying a small, sound-insulated enclosure located it at least 50' from the house. Less risk of Carbon Monoxide poisoning too. One small advantage of hearing the generator run is that I can easily tell when various electrical loads, like the fridge or furnace, come on and turn off.

Without a digital decibel meter with which to measure the various levels-I had to resort to the Analog measure test, which resulted in: Most Quiet-More Quiet, and Quiet..I hope that is helpful---:)

It's not quiet. I used a sound level meter to compare it to a couple other units and it's literally 10-20 times louder. The sound it makes is also particularly annoying.

It is somewhat louder than the single fan in my new Mac Pro, which is almost inaudible. It's really pretty quiet, although I have no way to measure the actual decibel output. I do hear the hard drives within when they spin up, and also when they are accessing data. I am not bothered by the "noise" at all.

I don't know the exact decibels. However I can say it's not nearly as loud as the ones you'll find at Home Depot or pepboys. During sandy u could hears the humming of generators in every direction around me from as far as a half mile away. This thing I couldn't hear on the other side of my house outside let alone inside

I don't know the decibels but it is super quiet. You can talk when it is running right next to you.

I'm sorry, I don't have a decibel meter, so I can't give an accurate answer. but it's loud enough to give a good boost to the sound on my Chromebook.

Negligible fan noise. Don't have a decibel meter but it's less than a whisper. We have been extremely happy with our machine. Great picture from small to huge. The largest we've needed has been 10 by 10 feet. It's threaded for a tripod. Only drawback is that the operation is not intuitive and the manual is not so helpful. But I just played around with it and wrote out the steps for myself. Super machine! More than you wanted to know...

I cannot say for 100% certain. It seems reasonably quiet (certainly NOT silent), but I'm running it in a server room with a couple of servers that kick out major decibels, so I don't have an accurate sense of this machine's noise level. Sorry.

No clue how many decibels, but it is plenty loud enough to hear while you are riding on road or trail. My wife has it on her bike and I can hear it fine from my bike when we ride together.

The fan cycles on and off. But it does make a noise when on. I have is sitting right behind my work desk where I spend 8 hrs per day and I never think about the noise. I would guess 35-45 db.

On high it is probably around 45 - 50 decibels. Loud, but not as loud as other units I have been around. We typically run it at the middle setting unless it's a really hot and muggy day and it is tolerable. I don't need to turn the tv up.

I had no problem with noise from the unit. Even slept with it in a small bedroom and was surprised I didn't notice it after a short while. It is rated for 800 square ft. which meant I had to move it around until the problem resolved, but that was my fault for not paying attention to the details. Otherwise very pleased with the product. Hope this helps.

Can't count the decibel level but it's not noisy. Relatively quite for the amount of air it's pushing. I'm not a rep but I hope this helps. I think it's a great product IMHO.

I don't know the exact decibel level. It makes noise but I have not found it terribly loud. You wouldn't want to use it near when anyone nearby was sleeping.

As I have no decimeter the answer is it is not very loud. You should not have a problem with the noise level.
