Good design
on January 23, 2026
Posted by: MZeek
from Hickory, NC
Worked well right out of the box. Used as a rural house backup generator: 3500 sq.ft., 1 hp well pump, 1/2 hp septic pump and 5 ton heat pump. Handled the electrical loads with some minor dipping of voltage. Used only propane only so far.
Opportunities for improvement:
1. Instructions on how to use the battery charger. There is a light on the plug-in charger that is red when charging and turns green when charged.
2. Reroute the battery wiring away from the oil dip stick
3. Relocate the battery so the wheel does not have to be removed for battery replacement
4. Improve muffler/housing to reduce noise

I bought this due to a severe ice storm that we are expecting. It arrived promptly. Started on the first try with remote start. I ran it for a few minutes, and it seemed to be operating fine. Instructions were very clear and it was easy to set up. Would recommend.

Great features! Easy to set up and get going

I bought this two years ago but have not needed to use it so finally got it out of the original box and set it up. Had to charge the battery for about 30 minutes and did a pull start to get it going but it started with no problem. Love all the good YouTube reviews I've seen on it and glad I'll be able to use it for anything in my house.
