Recent purchase, but have already used it to power the a/c on our travel trailer for a quick camping trip (using my existing propane tanks. Then, used it in the back yard to power my electric log splitter (this time using gas). Love the fuel fuel capability.
I would recommend this to a friend!

The price is right it works well. There is plenty of power to provide energy for emergency outages.

Flexibility.

Delivery was quick. Concerns are minor. Battery knocked out of position, quick fix. Instruction booklet not completely accurate regarding the main access panel screws: 4 typical screws and #5 was a bolt head: 10mm socket required. The funnel that screws into the oil reservoir was very welcome. With limited access, this prevented taking the entire outer panel off. Security of the unit to another hardened fixed location could be helpful, consideration for a loop plate for a cable or chain would be nice. Yet to test under a variety of conditions.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this a week ago and ran it on Propane for one hour. I Powered a 1500 Watt electric heater and it was only using 25 percent of power. The generator came with tools to operate it. A very good Generator.

Problems right out of the box
on March 28, 2023

I unpacked the iGen4500DFc and immediately found the battery box open and the battery strap disconnected, and the battery flopping around the compartment. Paired the key fob but the engine failed to crank. Engine cranks when I use the start button. Contacted customer support and was on hold for an hour only to get a receptionist who took down my complaint. Heard back from a technician a few days later and they said it sounds like a defective key fob. They sent a replacement, I paired it with the generator, and still didn't work. Contacted them again, and by email, they said it's probably the module. They sent me a new module with poor instructions on how to disassemble the case cover to access the module. Finally got the case open and then found that the module didn't match the original. Old module has a 12 pin connector, the new module had a 10 pin connector. Now it'll be days, if not weeks before I get this resolved. I haven't even tried to start this unit yet!
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

FIRST START UP REVEW
on March 28, 2023
Posted by: STELLER
from UTAH
THIS IS A FIRST START UP REVEW. EVERTHING WAS IN THE PACKAGE, NO DAMAGE TO THE PACKAGE, EASY INSTRUCTIONS, ADDED SUPPLIED OIL, ADDED GAS, READ THE QUICK START, ROLLED OUTSIDE AND BINGO! STARTED RIGHT UP. I CHECKED THE FUNCTIONS INCLUDING REMOTE START. EVERTHING IS FUNCTIONING WELL. HAVE NOT YET CHECKED THE LOAD FUNCTIONS. I LIKE THE CARRY-ON HANDLE EVEN IF IT WON'T FIT IN THE OVERHEAD STORAGE :) .
