I purchased about a month ago mainly for hunting and if we loose power. Great generator loaded with some really nice features. Electric start is nice and the remote start stop is an added bonus
Love the remote start/shutdown feature. Unfortunately did not work at first. Found a disconnected electrical connector, probably due to shipping. Reconnected and unit works fine.
Just running on eco and zero load this thing is 65Dba. Don’t know how they can ever get 58Dba unless they measure it as it’s shutting off. Guess I won’t be using it at any campgrounds.
This inverter generator is better than your traditional generator! It is super quiet - I can't even hear it inside my house, and the neighbors that live next door certainly would not be able to hear it running. It is VERY easy to start with the remote or push button. I started by plugging in a couple of box fans and several lights to test it out. The load was still near 0 with a running time of approx. 15hrs on a full tank. It is rather large and heavy, but easy to move around with the pull out handle and wheels.
Generator was easy to set up, fill it with the supplied oil, add some gas, connect the battery and push the start button! My wife loves the remote start key fob! We have an off grid camp in Maine and this will go great to supplement our small solar system as well as power construction tools when necessary.
