Reliable Power for Camping – Troy-Bilt Inverter

I recently used the Troy-Bilt Inverter TBXIGFN70115 for a weekend camping trip, and here’s my detailed take to help others decide. With 2800 running watts and 2800 starting watts, it powered my RV’s lights, a small fridge, and a coffee maker without issues, which was a huge plus. The inverter technology delivered clean energy, keeping my phone charger and laptop safe, and the compact, portable design made it easy to carry to our campsite. What I liked most was the quiet operation—much quieter than my old generator—allowing us to enjoy the outdoors without constant noise. The sturdy build and clear control panel were also impressive, simplifying setup. However, I didn’t love the fuel efficiency; it consumed more gas than expected during extended use, which added to the trip cost. Additionally, the lack of shipping availability at my location meant I had to pick it up, which was inconvenient. At $549.98, it’s a solid investment for portability and power, but I’d suggest testing fuel usage for longer outings.

Very useful product

The weight is manageable and can be moved around if need be. Has a sight guide for fuel which is very helpful. Easier pull start than a standard gas mower. Plenty of charging ports with 4 plugs, a usb, usb-c, and a parallel connector. Standard noise level for a product like this. Does not come with oil, but easy enough to get a out is 10W-30. Overall a great product.

Amazing!!

This is a great little machine. We plan on using this for a camper that we have restored. It is the perfect size and it runs quiet and isn’t too heavy for me to carry. It fits great inside of my vehicle also since it’s not too big for transportation.

Works Great!

My husband loves this Troy-Bilt inverter. The fact that it is portable, with a handle, makes it very easy to carry. It is relatively quiet and works great when we go camping. The instructions were simple and easy to understand. I highly recommend this Troy-Bilt inverter to anyone looking for a reliable and compact generator.

Peace of mind as good as it gets

So happy to finally have a generator as it feels like we lose power multiple times a year during storms! This generator was easy to operate once I made sure to read instructions. I love that you use regular unleaded gas and don’t have to make a confusing gas/oil mixture. It is heavy duty but I can still carry around it myself. It was easy to start up and it’s quieter than my neighbor’s generator. I can’t wait to take it camping or should I say glamping with us next month! This will serve us well for years!

Generator

This compact generator is light weight and very portable. It was able to sustain our travel trailer and will be perfect for any storm outages. It’s quiet yet reliable and super easy to use. Great investment for whatever comes your way.

Better to be prepared than not have anything

I'm thoroughly impressed with my Troy-built inverter! The build quality is top-notch, and it's been running smoothly since installation. The pure sine wave output has been a game-changer for my sensitive electronics, and the efficiency is impressive. Installation was straightforward, and the compact design fits perfectly in my setup. Overall, I'd highly recommend the Troy-built inverter to anyone looking for a reliable and high-performance solution. Five stars!

Amazing!!!!!!!

This is a game changer!!! If you are in need of something that will make life easier when you need power in remote places such as a camping site or a fun day in the park…this is it! It’s soooo easy to use and I absolutely love it. I needed to pressure wash my desk and it was so convenient having the power right there; rather than having to run a long cord to the house. It’s not super loud and it’s nowhere near as heavy as I thought it would be. I was able to pick it up with one hand, and that’s a huge plus! This is definitely going to come in handy this summer for sure!

East to Use

Easy to set up. I have used bigger generators before & this one is very simple to use. Light compared to others. Instructions are easy to ready alongside with visual. Took less than 10 min to set up. I used this smaller one for camping. It's very convient fit for smaller cars. Used it for charging my essential gear for my tools & cooking appliances. The kids loved charging their electronics while camping. Runs well on the gas lasted me about 4 hours.Would recommend for people who live in more compact spaces. This one is a perfect size.
