The Perfect Generator

Purchased this generator to be used with my 19.3 No Boundaries RV. It runs the AC with no problems!!!! With my AC in full power, it is only pulling around 1,700 watts, which is almost 50% and that was in 103 degree Texas weather!! Worth every penny IMO!!!!
I just bought this a week ago, but I have been using my brothers for months now. I am in construction an have used a butt load of generators (not as big as 4500) but the Westinghouse Brand is by far the best. Like I said I just bought My iGEN 4500 for the use with my RV for Motocross events Knowing that I am going to have much more power than I need. I’ve done much research on this brand via internet BUT WHAT SOLD ME were the amount of people I’ve met at the tracks who WHOLE HEARTILY love and praise there Westinghouse generators.
Recently went on a road trip and stopped at a place to camp for the night in the RV. This ran everything we needed for the night to be comfortable and still was running into the morning with no signs of giving up. It was also relatively quiet.
Just purchased the Westinghouse iGen4500. Packaging was very good. Set up of the Generator was very simple.
Oil is in pre-measured .6 Quart Bottle and came with the pour nozzle and a Tool Kit with a small length #2 Phillips screwdriver and Spark Plug removal tool with a handle.
Battery is pre-wired and just needs the Battery plugged into a mated connector and the hold down rubber strap installed.
Generator Started right up with it's remote and and the Digital Display shows how much runtime remains on the current fuel level, Voltage output, hours and Fuel quantity in Liters.
Has a duplex Receptacle, a 30A 120V Receptacle as well as a pair of USB outlets. Also includes a 120V AC Battery Charger with a port on the front to plug into to charge the generator battery in the event it had gone low. Has Fuel shut-off dial, Battery Power Switch and Start push button as well.
Generator can be pull started in the event the Battery is low. ( haven't tried the pull start since its working great without.
The remote Start FOB is single press and is attached via carabiner to the Pull Start Rope during the unboxing of the unit.
Bought 1 week ago. Unpacked iGen 4500, wonderful directions. Put in oil, attached battery snap on. Half a tank of gas and voila! Cranked up using recoil, punch button and then the key fob. Quiet, responsive and really love the digital display that gives you all the info you will need.
