New as in the last 40-50 years? Can you please give me examples of recent 2 stroke mowers and generators available in the USA? I haven't seen a 2 stroke generator or lawnmower in all my years and I used portable generators a bunch at my old job (Coleman, Generac, Honda, etc). However Ive seen plenty of small 2 stroke motors on hand held lawn and garden tools, chain saws, boat engines and dirt bikes.
The only 2-stroke generator I can think of are those really small antique 500W generators that I think Coleman made in the 1960's or 70's?

- MisterTea 3y agoAh. Import trash. It feels like this is a more recent trend - with the import floodgates fully open we are seeing the reappearance of low tech machines that were abandoned but remain popular in developing nations.
- alistairSH 3y agoYep. Same thing in the e-bike market. So much trash on Amazon etc. They don’t pollute the air, but they have cheap batteries more prone to fire, trash brakes, etc.
