COMPACT BACK UP POWER

Just got the iGEN 200s. It appears to be nicely made and is the first rechargeable device that has built in fan cooling while recharging suggesting it will have a bit of punch when needed. Haven't had it long enough to really say much but it is a nice blue color and has a bright flashlight.

Brand New Never Used Now a Dud

Bought this because we do craft shows and it was easier than paying for an electrical hookup. Charged it up the first night, haven't needed to use it since I bought it 2 months ago.It was also sealed in a water tight container. Went to double check on the unit to see if it still had a charge, and the unit had no charge. Plugged it in to charge it up, the unit would say it's charged, then after I remove the plug, got no power from the unit. Plugged it back in again, and battery meter showed the battery was dead. I repeated the process again to charge the unit, and again the battery would be dead in less than 30 seconds. It was a mistake to buy from Westinghouse

New purchase for a specific use.

A week or so ago we had a power outage that lasted 12 hours, not a common event in my location, Snohomish PUD in the Puget Sound region of Washington state.. but something I noticed when look at my Wi-Fi tablet during the outage... my Wi-Fi was the only one up in the neighborhood, but it was just the Wi-Fi extender on a Yeti 100 power supply... but it was just the extender... this purchase was just the right size to power the router and the wireless handset landline network.. this product should fill that gap in connections to landline and internet, a just right sized solution I hope without tying up Goal Zero Yeti generators I already have , The test will be during the next outage... will I be able to follow outage websites, news, and of course games to pass the time of during a few hours of an outage... Otherwise the design is nice, the light is of good brightness, the weight is light, and since it should be stored plugged in... and emergency power of internet seems a good use.

Hurricane Support

I bought this in advance of hurricanes to occur this summer/fall. I will have confidence that I'll be able to communicate if and when electricity is lost. I'll be able to use my computer and run a fan to obtain some comfort. I even purchased a solar panel to recharge it.

Great features

After being without power for 5 hours and cell phones batteries dying we bought this so we wouldn't have to be without again. Great feature you can charge a phone and have a lamp plugged it. The light on this unit is very bright. Very happy with this purchase.

Better than any noisy generator

This 1000s unit is the real deal. I didn't expect it to perform so brilliantly but it did. I was without power for 8 days in the SW Va mountains during Helene,, and I was able to run most all of my small items with ease,, I think the only thing I haven't tried yet is my refrigerator,, but it ran a PA system with accessories and then during cleanup I plugged an electric chainsaw into it and cut up two trees with plenty of power to spare. Plus it changes up quickly (in my case the whole house generator recharged it quickly),, then I can turn it off to save propane and use this nifty little device instead. This is a winner,, bravo Westinghouse!

Bonus item insert lied

Tried to get bonus item as advertised on insert, not easy or truthful upon registration. Wants a review. Have not started it yet, but already feel the bad customer service feeling coming on. Register first, get item as offered, then can start and rate machine. I might give it a 5 in a few days, but no bonus item for registration 😢

Worked initially, but failed.

Bought this to run a CPAP on a camping trip. Was nice that we could recharge it in the truck as we drove. It did the trick for the first trip. Years 2 and 3 we didn't use it much. Year 4 it no longer will hold a charge. I estimate we have a total of 50 charge cycles on this thing and now it is worthless.

Powers my scope and accessories for hours

I purchased the iGen160s a couple of months ago to power my Celestron CGE1100 telescope and some accessories, including a dew heater and it has worked very well. I have been able to run the scope and heaters for hours without running out of power, which I could not do before with my Celestron PowerTank.

Verified Purchase

Faulty equipment

Plugged it in to charge up and about 30 minutes later it was smoking and shorting out. Smelt like a fire was breaking out. Need to return it.
