So far, much better than Predator 3500
on April 8, 2019
Posted by: Rubric
from Cody WY
I only have a few hours on my iGen4500DF, but so far it is proving to be much better than the Predator 3500 that I had before. I live at 5,000' elevation, and I highly reccomend purchasing the high altitude carb kit if you live this high or higher.
So far mine runs smooth and powers our travel trailer (only a 13,000 btu AC) without any issues. The build quality is nice as well as the feature set, however, there is room for improvement. The digital readout won't let me select a reading. It only cycles through the pre added options. Also, the fuel reading is a little silly as it gives you a reading in liters. For some that might be a bonus, for myself, I would have much prefered gallons.
Overall, it seems to be a solid unit and I would purchase it again.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Nice features and really quiet!

I just got this unit, therefore I have only used it for a very short time, but I am extremely impressed with it so far. The electric start feature is great. I will be using it mostly with a travel trailer, so the option of running on either propane or gasoline in also a terrific feature. However, the best thing is that it's much quieter than I expected. I think this will be a great generator for the trailer with the capacity to run the air conditioner, coffee pots, hairdryers and anything else we need.

Very quiet generator!

I bought this generator and it arrived a few days ahead of schedule. I unboxed it, put oil in it and connected a propane tank to it and started it right up. I connected it to my travel trailer and turned the A/C on an ran it all day. Works great!

Excellent Generator
on April 7, 2019

Only generator in its class, dual fuel and remote start! One some of the complains other have had, my plug was installed correctly and I did not have any issues with choke not working. Shipping was quick. Over all I am very happy, have about 40 hours on the unit so so far with no issues. I use propane only, the generator does lope a little when pulling low watts but I am starting to think it’s the propane tank because it does not always happen. Unit is also very quite and the power flow is very stable. I have a gauge in the camper and with old gen it use to bounce around with this one it holds steady. Time will tell for reliability.

Seems to work well with our RV Airconditioner, still early to tell. Seems to use a lot of propane, but is effecent on gas.

Easy to assemble, easy to use, and runs quiet

Bought this after the last snowstorm knocked out our power for a week. The generator was easy to assemble and get running. Needed to pull the manual recoil start a few times to prime the system on first run, the electronic starter works great after that.
It runs very quietly and could not even hear it running on the other side of the house. It is easy to move around with the handle and wheels.
Filling the oil could be a little easier, the fill plug sits way back in the compartment and by the time you put the funnel in, there is no way to tell when it is full except to pour in a little oil at a time, remove the funnel, and shine a flashlight to see the oil level.

I bought this for my tiny home. Runs great. The duel fuel option was the main reason for purchase.

Camping & trailer power

I just purchased this generator and it already exceeds my expectations. I have only run it on propane so far. It is extremely quiet and efficient. Very portable, also.
