Unpacked filled oil, connected battery and added fuel. Followed start up guide and then pushed start and the generator started immediately. Tried the FOB on and off no problems at all. Great experience and looking forward to next camping trip.
Was a little concerned about the size of it when it was delivered, but it's protected very well in its box. Instructions are great, easy set-up and started up right away using the supplied battery. Fit and finish is nice and it runs smooth and quiet for the size (iGen4500). So far very happy.
I did a lot of research before purchasing this generator. After hooking up the battery and filling oil and gas, it started on the first pull. I ran it a few hours with a light load. It is very quiet. Read 70db standing right next to it and 52-54db at 50'. I hooked it up to my living quarters horse trailer and it indicated 25% load with the 13,500btu A/C running, went to 75% with the microwave. Who knew they drew this much power? Then turned on a 1500 watt ceramic heater and it approached 100% but the main breaker still held. I highly recommend this product.
Better than I expected. Changed oil after a couple hours and not one piece of metal or flakes appeared in the oil. Totally shocked. Runs great. I love the remote start button.
