Seems like a great Generator

I just set mine up and ran it for about an hour. Ran a refrigerator, charged a phone and a backup battery. Went back and forth between standard and eco mode. Seems to throttle correctly. After running, I wanted to try draining the carburetor bowl, which went smoothly once I identified the screw. The setup instructions left a lot to be desired about how to do this and I resorted to online material. Once I found the screw it was a snap. The other thing that tripped me up was the connection of the battery connectors inside. There is a little add-on tag on the unit that identifies you need to do it, but no further explanation. After numerous tries of pulling the manual start cord, I figured it had to be something like the battery as the light wasn’t lit on the switch when you turn it on. I once I connected the battery cables inside, it fired right up!
I also love how quiet this unit is. I tested the decibels at about 23 feet and it was only 56db on regular mode(not eco mode). Right next to it and it was only 64db!
I look forward to using it during the next power outage!
We just ordered this inverter. It’s a great size and it has an extendable handle with wheels for easy movement. It should be easy to store and use during those pesky hurricanes.
I bought this inverter generator few days ago after careful research and shopping the best retailers in my area for the best deal. This is it. It fulfills all my criteria including the best price. Due to weather conditions I did not start the generator yet, but I am happy with the iGen4000DFcv's quality, features and accessories and can't wait to do the tryout.
Bought this model because of the remote start feature and dual fuel. Have not had a chance to use it with my RV yet. Will use more reviews in after use.
I bought my iGen4000DFc a month ago to power my school bus conversion. I wired my bus for a 30 electrical service and, after the 5 hour break in period, it was time to hook it up to the bus. The generator has enough power to run the AC unit, microwave and refrigerator all at the same time. Easy to start, and with the digital read out, I can see output voltage, how much power I'm using and how much fuel I have. I could be happier with my purchase. I also love the remote start.
