Compared to my other generator this thing is so small and lightweight. I love that it has a data center and all the electrical outlets I could ever need.
I bought two of these iGen2550 Generators for my Travel Trailer. Would have preferred one bigger one however after two back surgeries I am limited on how much I can lift. After doing much research, I think these are the best and here’s why. First off, they run in parallel with out having to purchase and hook up a separate device. They both came with parallel wires at no extra cost. They each have a full 30 amp. Trailer Plug In. So, no need for an adapter. They are very lightweight. I can carry both at the same time (if needed) I usually carry one at a time with no problem. They have a plastic screw in funnel to fill the oil tank (others are hard to fill or top off without spilling a mess) used and replace oil with out spilling a drop. They come with the exact amount of oil needed (no need to carefully measure) They have one knob to turn for starting, running and shutting down. They made the outside in a way the handle lays flat in a formed spot on the side panel. The dashboard is bright and shows amount of fuel level by just looking at the control panel. Both started quickly and ran perfect. I use them in parallel so I can run my Air Conditioner in my Trailer. I just spent six weeks traveling Florida and used them frequently. They each come with a tool kit and everything needed to start using. I would definitely buy them again. I gave them 4 Star because I wish they had wheels, however they are light enough to not really need them.
Bought this to camp on Ohio river. Had solar before but the panels would fry thousands of bugs a day and very unreliable. Tried wind but also unreliable plus it was a bird killer. Got the iGEN2550 and wow this baby packs a punch. This is so reliable and it sips good ole petroleum runs forever on a full tank of gas. I don't have to deal with fried bugs and dead birds anymore! I would absolutely buy again.
esta bonito, pero creo estaria mejor si trajera incorporada la pantalla dijital.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I purchased this last month to carry with us in our Fitfh wheel RV to charger the batteries is needed and to enable us to run 1 of the air conditioners while camping off the grid. I run this off of the propane system on the RV so I purchased a hose without a regulator (propane system is regulated on the RV). I found that when the generator is cold you need to pull out the manual choke to keep it running until it warms up. If you don't it will run for 30 sec to a minute then shut off like it has run out of fuel. Love the 30 amp outlet on the control panel, most smaller ones only have the 20 amp outlets.
