Super quiet!
on July 19, 2021
Posted by: iGen2500fan!
All the reviews talked about how quiet the iGen2500 was. I couldn't believe it when I ran it myself, it was more quiet than I expected. It was quieter than my neighbors lawnmower, who was mowing their grass right next door!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great emergency generator
on July 18, 2021

Got tired of losing frig and freezer contents because of hurricanes & other power outages, including the Feb 2021 great freeze. So, this month, bought this handy, small, portable generator to power frig/freezer and, if a winter outage, the natural gas furnace.
Added the oil and fueled it up, and it started in 3 pulls the 1st time ever used. I love the inverter technology and the way it can be used in the economy mode to power up the engine to only the run speed needed for the electrical load. That feature works great. Ran it for about an hour and a half at numerous different load levels to test that feature, and ran it at full load. I had poured only a tiny amount of fuel in the tank, maybe 6 ounces, and it was still running when I shut it off.
After cooling off, next start required only 1 pull. I am impressed with the overall quality of this product. I got the 2500 watt model instead of the 2200 watt model, figuring it would put less stress on the engine and allow it to run at lower RPMs for the load I anticipate running it at most of the time.
Also, the digital meter is a really convenient feature for the different running data it provides.

Quiet Running

I purchased this for tent camping in primitive places. It will work great for what I need. It is easy on fuel and runs so quiet. I tested it to see how much a small window unit A/C unit would take. It only took 25% according to the output gauge.

I bought this to run my small travel trailer when we have no available power source.
It is very portable, quiet, easy to start and operate. Has great fuel economy. The perfect size power for portability.

Great features for the size

In the last week my electric company lost power on 2 occasions for 6 hours each. Back in July of 2019 I had no power for 2 and a half days. I finally said enough is enough. I ran my fridge, garage freezer, home entertainment, DSL internet and a couple LED lamps. No problem. Great and very happy.

Starts right up every time!

The initial startup took a little time as the gas lines had to be primed. Every time after that it started in the first pull. It runs forever too!
