iGen2550DFc generator

Just bought the iGen2550DFc generator for emergency use and possibly for camping. The unit was a little bigger than I imagined. At idle, no load, the noise was reasonable but it got louder than I expected with 1kW heater. I only tested with propane, however. I was able to get close to 1800 Watts before the overload kicked in. For emergency use, it was good enough for the price. For camping, it may be a bit loud.
I bought this a month ago to prepare for bad weather. After unpacking the generator and reading the quick start direction it started on the first try. Then I hooked it up to test it capacity to power refrigerator, heater, TV, and microwave and everything worked fine. I did not have to use it but, if I need it I have the peace of mind that it will work properly.
Did some research prior to purchasing, was looking for a small Gasoline Inverter Generator to power my pellet stove when we lose power. This was a great one without breaking “breaking the bank” on a huge generator. Plus it will be great for camping/travel if needed!
