Being a tri-fuel generator is what I bought it for

I bought this after having a tornado and a hurricane come thru my area in a span of 6 weeks. Relied on neighbors to plug into their generators to keep my fridge running. I have a natural gas hookup and plan on using this generator to run a small garage apartment. Having a natural gas supply. Keeps me from looking for gasoline and after finding some waiting in lines to get it.

Good power station,but doesn't run all night

I bought this power station to run a small swamp cooler which uses less than 50W of power. I am new to solar systems and I am still learning the best way to charge stuff off the grid. I should have researched more carefully, because I had a very hard time finding an adapter that would work on this power station to hook it up to my solar panel. I can't afford to buy a Westinghouse Solar panel,so it would have been convenient to have adapters to use solar panels other than Westinghouse.

SAVED THE WEEKEND WITHOUT POWER

Purchased this generator when our power went out and was not due to be back on for four days. I ran it for over 60 hours and it handled what we need in our house. Ran the freezer and sump pump in the basement. It also powered our kitchen refrigerator and non essential items like the microwave, TV, internet, lights and more.

Low amperage on 12v car socket

Westinghouse electric 12v blanket can only get 58 watts out of the iGen1000s because the car socket is handicapped at 12v/5A. A true car socket gets 10A. Have fun freezing because Westinghouse didn't consider using this for anything but charging a phone or two. Pathetic.

Good Power Station

I have been using this for about a year and a half. We use it when camping. It runs everything from our refrigerator, to our portable swamp coolers and TV, etc. We use solar panels to charge it. It has stopped working, and now it will only turn on for a few seconds. I'm hoping that we will be able to rely on the 2 year warranty for repair or replacement. If not for the issue I would give it 5 stars.

Highly Recommend

I bought this power pack because I needed something larger to charge and power my photography equipment. Its really worked out well - I've had no issues with it running out of juice on me while working, doesn't really take up that much space compared to the rest of my equipment. Solid purchase.

Great portable option for solar

Really nice and compact. Has hook and loop fasteners to keep it stowed and also well engineered legs for easy foldout and setup. The charging area doubles as a zipped pouch to keep cables stowed. Used it with my iGen1000 and it worked well. Slick setup. Note: Does not seem to be waterproof per manual instructions.

Can use either gas or propane

We purchased this over a year ago and did not need to use it until Hurricane Milton hit. We were very happy to realize not only how easy it was to set up and use but that when we ran out of gas how easy it was to switch to using propane. Was able to enjoy a hot shower and a/c.

Great Product, But Issues After A Year

I've had this product for a year and a half. I only use it occasionally and it has functioned well until recently. It charges quickly and provides power all night for my CPAP. Unfortunately it recently just quits after an hour or so (when fully charged) and must be recharged. The problem is, when recharged it charges to 100 percent in just a few minutes because it really is already charged. When I try using it again, it only last a few minutes then I need to repeat.

Awesome generator

This is for the 11000DFc. Bought this to use as a whole home backup. It does not disappoint. It will run everything in my home. Obviously need to be selective on running the 240 amp appliances. My central HVAC has a variable speed motor so its an easy start. In what i would think would be a long outage i would put a window unit in my master bedroom and not us the central hvac. The generator is a bonded neutral so you might want to convert it to a floating neutral if hooking to your home through an inlet. It's easy to do.
