Tahoe Industries

Tahoe Industries (often abbreviated TI or Tahoe) is an American power equipment manufacturer.

Founded in the Las Vegas metropolitan area, Nevada as a result of the epic Hurricanes and Ice Storms of 2005 and 2006, it was one of two major American manufacturers to provide Generators during the massive power outages of August 2008 (Hurricane Gustav) and February 2009 (Ice Storm of the Century - Arkansas & Missouri).[4] Tahoe Industries has since survived a web-based attack launched in May 2009 by one of its primary competitors in the light industrial equipment industry.

The company sells large-sized portable (over 400 cc) generators designed for powering household items as well as contractor electric power tools. Tahoe Industries Generators have a distinctive design and feature set. They are especially noted for the remote control electric start features, digital control panels, and over-sized muffler systems for quiet operation.[5] Tahoe Industries Generators reflect the styles of premium power equipment with their glossy finish, fully enclosed casings and upgraded wheel assemblies. Tahoe Industries has established itself as a successful Honda Small Engine OEM, utilizing the popular Honda GX200 engines on its portable Air Compressors and Pressure Washers. These have received favorable reviews from end users and industry critics alike.

Tahoe Industries is developing a loyal brand community which keeps ACTIVE through a myriad of websites and user forums, all provided at no charge by the company.

In addition to manufacturing power equipment under its own name, Tahoe Industries' divisions include Customer Service, Parts, Warranty Repair and Distributor Relations/Development. T-I currently offers equipment nationwide through a network of Distributors, and plans to open business in Canada and Mexico in 2010.
