I just received this item on 07/02/2023 have not put it together yet but I have read good reviews looking forward to getting it up and running and trying it out on my house
I searched and researched all kinds and brands of Generators for our camper. I finally found this IGen4500. Simply the best setup of options for what we needed and also for a great price. Quiet running and maneuverable.
I received the generator on 6/26 and used 100% synthetic oil instead of he oil received with the unit. With the cost of the unit, why put in a cheaper oil. I ended up doing a 6 hr. break-in and varied the wattage from 22-1,643 with many changes over the time period. The digital data center is very handy for tracking the various outputs of the generator. I had no problems during the break-in process. In fact everything went smoothly as one would expect. I am only running ethanol free gas in it and it will be drained of fuel until we have the potential of a hurricane coming our way. I live in Florida and had a Honda 2000 for back-up, for the last 2 years, but never needed it as the hurricanes skirted us with only some higher winds and some rain. I bought this generator because I wanted to make sure I had the power to run the refer/freezer, microwave, TV, internet, lighting and various small items.
I bought this generator a few days ago. I unboxed it today and filled it with oil and Gas. It started right up with remote. I let it run for 20 min. It profomrd like it should.
Just got my inverter so haven't got a lot of use out of it yet but so far I love it. Smaller in size than I expected and very quiet with plenty of power
