Fabulous Camper Generator

It's for out camper, which keeps everything running like a beast, but we also used it to run our house's lower level for two days during a power outage. We ran dozens of lights, plug-in heaters, large appliances, televisions, and the internet. It was billions decibels quieter than our other generator. I'm sure our neighbors with power on the adjacent street approve of the quieter-running generator this go around :)

Ease of Start, quiet, cold weather starting

Bought unit in october 2020. Initial setup was straight forward and generator performed as described. I have maintained it as required, started to keep battery charged etc... Went out today, and it appears as though battery is dead, and I had to choke it to get it to start manually. Started on second pull. Charging battery overnight to see what happens. One would think the battery would last longer than 6 months.

Perfect for our Travel Trailer

We purchased the iGen 4500 to use for boondocking when we camp in our new travel trailer. We love the weight of this and the handy retractable handle for ease in moving it. The set up and starting it for the first time was extremely easy and user friendly. We looked at other generators and found the price of this coupled with the features to be just what we need. My husband especially likes the remote control starter and the quiet hum when it is running.

Nice and quiet

Great features when they work. They generator is quiet and works great, good power to run a small home. The remote start feature has some glitches. It works sometimes, but not all the time. There are you tube videos available on how to address the problem. Over all a good little generator!

As specified!

The dimension specs were very important because I need it to fit under my hard tonneau cover for transporting it while towing my 5th wheel RV, so it can be covered and locked, perfect fit! The noise level is important and it is extremely quiet, very pleased. I've been breaking it in before I travel with it to make sure it does the job, randomly putting loads on it to change the rpm's. It ran for 22 hours on a tank of gas and never ran out, very efficient! I turned it off after about 6 days of random run times and changed the oil. The oil change process is a little messy because it's in a tight access area, so I'm glad I did that at home. Overall I'm extremely satisfied. The generator is packaged well for shipping, the box had a good bit of damage to it. The styrofoam packing was even damaged inside, but the generator is in perfect shape.

Great unboxing/start-up

Received the product fast and it arrived fast without any damage to the box. Once i unboxed the generator the only thing I noticed was the casing where the molds are created, one piece had a few small imperfections. Aside from that everything was great.after adding oil, fuel, and connecting the plug for the battery it fired right up. I ran it for about 30 minutes without a load for break-in and will run it for about an hour tomorrow before placing any load on it. It is super quiet at idle and while running. Would recommend this product to anyone that requires this much power.

Good Unit

Unit works good for what we will be using it for. Will run everything on my 5th wheel trailer we need on at a time. Very quiet unit. The only bad thing, I can say is about the filling and changing the oil is a pain. Hard to see how much oil your putting in the unit. To change the oil, the unit must be tipped. If you spill the oil ends up in areas which make it hard to clean up and drips onto the ground. You would've thought engineers or designers would've done a better job

Great features for the price. "dual fuel".

Have not got to run it much so I can't speak to dependability but has all the features I need and unlike my 3000seb blue generator I can lift it into the back of my truck without help. The fit and finish leave a little to be desired but it is also more watts and half the price of what I'm comparing it to. To the people that mention changing the oil is messy. Find a small funnel "notch it if necessary" that will fit under the oil drain through the hole in the bottom. be patient and let it drain slowly and you will have no mess. At this point I would buy again.

Purchased item to power RV and at home.

Unboxed the generator filled with oil and gasoline. Connected battery and tried to start. Battery was dead. Pulled hand crank and started on first try. I have used around the house and it is working great. Will change oil and get ready for some camping.

QUIET

Amazed at how quiet and easy it is to use. The push button start is perfect, you do have to leave the battery switch on but as long as your battery is charge that is not a problem at all. The Eco mode is scary quiet. I though it would be to heavy for one person to lift andI would say its not really that bad really, heavy yes but not that bad. Over all I have been very happy only time will truly tell but so far so good.
