iGen8200TFc - A breeze to set up and start
on November 7, 2025
Posted by: KZ4ID
from Franklinton NC
The iGen8200TFc Tri-Fuel Inverter Generator was incredibly easy to set up, from unboxing to the initial startup. The packaging kept everything secure and undamaged. The Quick Start Guide manual provides Before Starting instructions, followed by a 5-step Starting Procedure, and then the Shutdown Procedure, all on a single 11 x 13 sheet.
On the other side of the sheet is a maintenance Guide, which includes Mechanical Specifications, a Maintenance Schedule, and information about the engine oil and spark plug. At the bottom is a support telephone number and their website address. By the way, I did not need to use them.
There is also a comprehensive 31-page user manual, complete with a table of contents that will accurately guide you to the information you need.
After reading the safety instructions, I then poured in the oil and used the quick-connect to connect the battery. I resecured the access panels, connected the propane, and turned on a few switches. Here it goes, --- I pressed the ON button on the remote start key FOB. It started, and I was pleasantly surprised by how quiet the generator sounded.
All the controls were conveniently located on a single, easy-to-access panel—I was really impressed by how efficiently everything was arranged.
Now I can sleep peacefully knowing I’m fully prepared for the next power outage.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Let the outages begin!

Just purchased this last month to connect through our smart home panel that has a built-in transfer switch. Quiet and comes with an integrated retractable towing handle. Love the ability to run from three fuel sources. No worries about the internal battery running down, as this generator comes with a trickle charger that plugs into the front control panel.

Great product

Product is great. Just unboxed and tried starting it today, too early to tell on longevity. Good manual instructions, but a few details left in that didn't apply to this model. Quality seems good except for the plastic dipstick and transporting handle that I wish were metal.

IGen8200TFc Generator
on November 1, 2025
Posted by: Andy14
from PA
Bought this to upgrade from the IGen2200 which I have had for quite a while and was very happy with, the reliability and quality. I have only had the 8200 watt generator for a couple of days but everything so far has worked as expected. There was some really minor shipping damage . One small scrap on the plastic cover and the prongs for the battery charger were bent over. Just straightened them with a pair of pliers. I expect many years from this unit just like the other one I have . Would definitely recommend purchasing this if you are in the market.. Love the fact that is Tri Fuel and I hope just to run off propane and natural gas so I do not have to drain gas out every six months if it sits idle.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Started Right Up. Surprisingly Quiet

Unpacking and quick start guide was very easy. Started on first try and running well so far. Looking forward to getting a lot of use out of it. Surprised how quiet it was for the generator size.

Works on gas but not propane
on October 30, 2025

from Seattle
Just bought it and it starts fine on gas but not propane.
Propane comes out of the hose if disconnected from generator.
Tried 2 different propane tanks, same result.
Starts briefly with a different regulator but stops after a second.
After posting this review I will be submitting a service request to see if they can help.
It's a nice generator so I would recommend it (even more so after it's fixed!)
