So far just used on LP easy set up ! nice digital read out plus LOAD % graph . Thats nice for break in period . Pretty quite for its size , bought for my slide in camper was looking at the 2550 but up sized ( was worried AC start might push the limit on the 2550) This one plenty of power ac / micro and all lights on same time not even 50% load .
I would recommend this to a friend!

Extremely happy with my iGen4000DFc. Easy to use. Quiet for a generator. Easy to lift because it is only 50 pounds. Also, has wheels and a handle for easy mobility.

Was looking for a generator big enough to run my 16 foot Scamp. This inverter generator is perfect with the size and remote start. Easy to set up started right away very pleased.

Nice features, quiet operation, and dual-fuel.

It's been several months since I bought this EG, as it was stored in our basement. However, after adding the .44q 10W-30 oil that came with the unit, connecting the Li-Ion battery, and connecting a small propane tank as the fuel supply, it started right up using the remote start fob. I wanted to use 5w-30 full synthetic oil, but the manual said to use the supplied oil during the 5-hour break-in period. I varied the load from 0 to 25%, during the initial trial 30-minute break-in runtime, while testing the EG's inverter output (the manual stated to not exceed 50% load during the break-in period). The voltage and frequency output were spot on. I didn't have a sound level meter to verify the ~52 dBA, but the sound level seemed relatively quiet compared to other EGs I've used. Another nice feature was the floating neutral AC system which is compatible with our house AC breaker panel via an adapter for the EG dual-pole L14-30 240v inlet. Of course, only 120volt loads can be served, so a 240 volt output capability on the EG would have been better. However, that type of output receptacle would typically be found on larger EGs.
I intend on using the propane fuel exclusively to avoid worrying about gasoline deposits even with fuel stabilizer for extended storage periods.
Overall, a very nice EG.

100% Except For Starter Issue
on September 6, 2025
Posted by: TS four million and fifty
from Waterford, MI
Just received it today and found it perfect... well except for the starter. It started immediately, after only several seconds of cranking on propane (of course, after filling the oil and connecting the battery), without even purging the propane hose as others post on YouTube for similar generators. (FYI no point in trying to purge the hose as there is no pressure to do so; the regulator is a "0 governor" and propane only flows with suction provided by the engine).
Sounds good, quiet, without a single miss, voltage is very steady; very smooth.
I really like the size and how easy it is to move using the handle and wheels.
As of writing this, it has 2.8 hours at 0-25% load, on propane, for the initial break in period and I'm about to finish the Westinghouse contact form for the starter issue.
Regarding the starter, it runs every time but about 50% of the time it disengages before starting, it then times out after several seconds and tries again if not stopped.
I haven't even pulled the manual starter cord.
I will update this review, if I can, after the starter issue is resolved and maybe also after running it on gasoline.
