Recently purchased this unit. Upon initial start I had to manually choke the generator. I was aware there had been some trouble with the auto choke on these units. I did find the connecter on the auto choke was not plugged into the module. When that was fixed the generator has started and run flawlessly. It’s pretty quiet and runs everything need on my fifth wheel.
Tested this unit on my RV and all was great. After a few hours boondocking with the RV, it would not idle down in econo mode, ran very rough, was loud and used a LOT of gas. Minimized use for the rest of the trip and checked it when home. Found a wiring connection slightly loose (not the one in a Youtube video) and it seems OK now.
I bought this a month ago and so far we are happy. We did however start having issues and had to cut our camping trip short this week, looking for a Westinghouse servicer.
Arrived in very well packaged box with plenty of protection. Followed the instructions to set it up, and had it running in 15 minutes out of the box.
Very quiet generator, and is a quality sturdy generator. I load tested it on my RV and it powered everything easily (AC, lights, TV, microwave, etc). Welcome addition to my RV, expecially with the remote start.
