Great Small Generator

I live in N. Florida and purchased this unit during Hurricane power outages. I really hated the larger units because of their noise. This unit is quiet and will run for more than 8 hours on gas fill up supplying power to Fan, C-Pap Machine and TV. During day it ran my refrigerator and keep my freezer cold.

Hi K Sau, thank you for the five-star review! We’re glad your A-iPower inverter provided the quiet, dependable backup power you needed during hurricane-related outages in North Florida. It’s great to hear you were able to keep important household equipment powered overnight and your refrigerator and freezer cold during the day, all while getting more than eight hours of runtime from a tank of fuel. We appreciate you choosing A-iPower and sharing your experience! ~A-iPower Customer Support Team

Try before using

After reading the reviews, I assumed there would be no problems, bought in the morning went camping and the unit would not stay on. Eventually just re-boxed item with the plan to return ASAP, we have a large generator and has worked with no issues but is westinghouse brand

We appreciate you sharing your experience and regret that the unit did not perform as expected. ~A-iPower Customer Support Team

Disappointed

I bought thhis generator because texas is texas. I got it home after spending a good amount. Ot looked great and like it would be a good purchase for me. When i got it home and opened the box it was not an easy deal. I called the manufacturer and was told it is confusing so he attempted to talk me through unscrewing all panels and handle then he told me to.hold on because he was a little lost. I told him you knownwhat indont want tonsteip any screws or damage it and i dont want to take all panels off of the generator and i would just return it

Worked great

Used once for my daughter’s softball game. I hooked up a torpedo heater for the dugout to help warm up the team during a cold spring game. They loved it and the generator worked great! The generator worked flawlessly and was unfazed when the torpedo heater fired up.

Excellent Portable Generator and Customer Service

I bought an earlier version of this generator about 4 years ago. Now with 870 hours of flawless performance, I did notice the last couple camp outings something wasn't right. It wouldn't allow me to run my camper 5k BTU AC unit on High, but only on Low. It would cause an Overload fault. As I mentioned, it had been flawless without fail up to this summer. I did a bit of experimenting by process of elimination. I plugged my camper AC into the house current, and it ran without fail eliminating the problem with the AC. I also had a camp buddy bring his portable inverter generator over to test run the camper AC and it too was without fail, but as I plugged the AC again into my generator it would go into Overload and fault. That said, I contacted the manufacturer and ordered a replacement Inverter Module (Approx $110 shipped). By the way, this company has GREAT customer service support! The replacement was painlessly simple! The 6 Phillips screws on the front cover, 2 tiny Phillips screws on the tow handle, and 2 10mm nuts on the module. The 4 connecting wire harnesses are designed so not to confuse what plugs into where. It took me all of 20 minutes for the whole disassembly/reassembly process. When assembled and tested my camper AC on the generator, it runs like new and no more overload faults. I might add that the new invertor module has some upgraded components to it. This is a GREAT portable generator and would highly recommend it.

Please check your air filter!

PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR AIR FILTER IS OILED. Mine was dry as a bone which means the air wasn't getting filtered during the break in period. Please A-iPower, make sure your workers are oiling the air filter as this shortens engine life. Otherwise, So good so far. I've attached various heaters and loads, even a Zojirushi rice cooker and it works all the way to 1800 watts continuously as rated.

We’re glad to hear that otherwise the generator has been performing well and successfully handling loads up to its rated 1,800-watt continuous output.

Great for the price

I live in a hurricane prone area, which also has a very fragile electric grid so every now and then when a power outage occurs, I use this unit to keep my refrigerator running while allowing my family to watch TV. I find the 1800W running capacity more than enough for my needs. If you give proper maintenance to this unit, they might last a long time. I recommend reading both the manual for this unit as well as the Yamaha version, as it has additional maintenance items to check.
