Runs like fine Swiss watch

The Igen 2500 Arrived in perfect condition. Added the supplied oil and and a small amount of ethanol free gas, and it started on the second pull and ran like a fine Swiss watch. I can carry this inverter generator easily with one hand and wow, it's quiet and smooth and uses very little fuel. It's a winner.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Better than Honda out of the Box - Time will tell

Just received the IGEN 2500 - Started on 3rd Pull (first pull after warmed up) - The motor stared a little rough but quickly smoothed out after about 20 mins. I have 2 hours of run time so far - all gauges / indicators appear to work properly. All the indicators and USB Charging ports are great to have ! Big improvement over the competition. I loaded it with Lights, Air Mattress pump, Blender, and hair dryer - the generator did not miss a beat - it ramped up smoothly to meet the demand. The max capacity output only showed 50%. The 2200 Running Watts vs the Honda 1600 Running Watts is a big advantage. The no load noise level is higher than the Honda but under load, I would rate this generator very close to the Honda - (but it is a little louder than the Honda). Not to mention that the Westinghouse is half the price of Honda. If this Generator continues to run like this, and shows a similar lifetime as the Honda - it will set a new standard for camping generators - One thing I did not like was that the IGEN 2500 is marketed at < 3% THD like Honda - But the Spec Sheet shows < 5% THD - Westinghouse needs to fix the Generator or their Advertising Claim to match their Spec Sheet.

More power than most protable generator
on August 30, 2017
Posted by: yt
from Lansdale, PA
I am going to use 2 generators to operate air-conditioner from my RV (13500BTU). It seems the starting AC without any issues and the generator has a lot of power. The potential concern so far I have is that the power consumption from both units is not equal (e.g., one showed 0.76 power and the other 0.32). I don't understand why unbalanced power happened under the paralleling operation when the westinghouse paralleling cable was used.
