About this item

Product details

"The A-iPower XOS2600i is a compact gasoline portable inverter generator built for camping, RVing, tailgating, outdoor recreation and selected home backup needs when operated outdoors and within its rated capacity. Its 80cc single-cylinder, 4-stroke OHV engine produces 2,600 starting watts and 2,000 running watts at 120V and 60Hz, with a rated current of 16.7A and recoil starting. Inverter technology delivers less than 3% total harmonic distortion at full load, providing clean power appropriate for many sensitive electronics while still supporting compatible lights, chargers, small appliances and other equipment that stay within the generator’s rated output. The XOS2600i is designed to balance useful power with fuel efficiency. Its 0.9-gallon gasoline tank provides up to 8.5 hours of runtime at 25% load, 6.5 hours at 50% load and 3.5 hours at full load. Low-idle economy mode helps reduce unnecessary engine speed when demand is lower. For quieter operation, A-iPower rates the XOS2600i at 61 dBA at 50% load measured from 21 feet, making it well suited to outdoor settings where lower generator noise is valuable. Portability is a key part of the design. The generator weighs 40.2 lb and includes a factory-installed telescoping handle, an integrated top handle and 3.0-inch flat-free wheels. That combination makes the XOS2600i easier to move around a campsite, RV setup, tailgate area or outdoor home backup location without requiring a separate wheel kit.

Power connections are built for everyday flexibility. The control panel includes one L5-30R 120V/30A locking receptacle, one 5-20R duplex 120V/20A receptacle with two household-style outlets, one USB-A 3.6A port and one USB-C 3.0A port. A 30A RV adapter is included for compatible RV connections. The digital data center displays voltage, frequency, operating hours, power and fuel level, along with output-ready, overload and low-oil indicators. An illuminated control panel improves visibility in lower-light conditions, and rubber outlet covers help protect the receptacles when not in use. For added operating protection, the A-iPower XOS2600i includes a CO monitor with automatic shutdown, automatic low-oil shutdown and circuit breakers. It is also parallel capable. Using the included parallel cable and following the owner’s manual, a compatible second XOS2300i or XOS2600i series inverter generator can be connected to increase available power; the second generator is sold separately. The package also includes oil, a funnel, tool kit, manual and quick-start guide. The XOS2600i is EPA certified, includes a USDA spark arrestor and carries a 3-year residential warranty. Always operate a gasoline generator outdoors only and follow all A-iPower safety and placement instructions carefully."

This generator has a defect that is causing fuel to leak from the carburetor. It is a major fire hazard, they need to put a stop sell on this item. I bought two and both of them leaked gas one ran for less than an hour. It's clearly a manufacturing defect because I didn't do anything to it to cause gas to pour out the bottom.

Hello Colt, we're sorry to hear about your experience, and we appreciate you bringing this to our attention. A fuel leak is certainly not the experience we want our customers to have. While this is not a widespread issue, it can occur if a carburetor float becomes stuck during shipping or handling. We'd like the opportunity to investigate your units and make this right. Please contact our Customer Support team at 855-888-3598 or support@a-ipower.com with your serial numbers and proof of purchase so we can assist you under warranty and work toward a resolution. ~A-iPower Customer Support Team
