Just started up for the first time yesterday 5/9/2022, and all set up was easy. Great instructions, remote set up was simple, and is a great feature, also seems pretty quiet. No issues so far.
I bought this generator, and have installed in our race car trailer. It runs everything from air compressor, lights, fridge and induction hot plate. The key fob works great. Except if you leave the master switch on, for a while it will drain the battery. To solve this problem. I have relocated the master switch to the front on the work bench. Now when I need the generator I turn on the switch and push on, on the remote. When finished using the generator I simply turn off the main power.
So far we love it! The Only thing, is it came with a stripped bolt out of the box. And seems to be revving high and low, in cycles. Not sure if that’s normal
Bought the iGen4500 to run my MinnieWinnie, to help power equipment for local music Festivle Equipment and back up for power outage. Have utilzed the first two reasons and been well pleased. Runs quiet, easy to operate and move. The wheels and telescoping handle make loading and moving doable.
Our old generator was incredibly loud and kept tripping when trying to power the AC in our RV. A friend had the iGen4500 and I was shocked at how quiet it was. We are still in the break-in period so I haven't tried powering our AC yet, but when camping with said friend, it powered theirs without issue.
