Powerful, Light, Compact and SUPER Quiet

I purchased this Generator to power our Lance 2285 as a backup for the solar and to run the air conditioner when campin in the sticks, as well as home backup in the event of a power outage. So far I've just set it up and ran it through its paces with several common household tools, haven't had a chance to hook it up to the camper. Anyway, I never saw more than 50% utilization and never heard it have to ramp up to full speed to power anything I threw at it, even a 5HP shop vac. From videos I've seen on YT, this should power our AC unit (13.5k BTU) with no problems Pros: The fuel gauge is an amazing feature and works perfectly The display constantly rotates through helpful information and updates in real time with the varying load applied, i.e. remaining run-time. It is very ergonomic, lightweight and easy to carry Extremely quiet, can have a normal conversation with someone standing only a foot or so from it The overall feel is that of quality and sturdiness, controls are well laid out and easy to identify and use The gas cap is chained on and the fill spout is very large, making it easy to see the fuel level as you approach full Instructions are well written, easy to follow and getting it all set up, oil in the crankcase and fuel in the tank, was extremely simple CONS: When taking off the cover to inspect/add/change oil or deal with draining the carburetor, getting the plastic side off after undoing the screws can prove challenging, perhaps a molded grab handle or the like would solve this Overall, an extremely good value VS other comparable models, looks cool, performs great, and we look forward to many years of service from our new generator.

Received the iGen 2500 in good condition. Added oil, gas, and started it up on the first crank. Looking forward to trying it out while dry camping with my 22 ft travel trailer. Best of all the iGen 2500 has enough power to run my trailers 13.5k BTU air conditioner.
