Great Inverter Generator

I live in Florida and wanted to be more prepared for potential weather threats (hurricanes). Upgraded from smaller non-inverter generator and installed a 50 amp power inlet box with an interlock on the main breaker so I no longer have to run extension cords for everything. Definitely a game changer! Great features on this generator and competitive price.

So far, so good

After looking at a variety of generator brands, I decide the iGen11000DFc gave me what I wanted at the right price point. It was easy to setup and I've tested it using gasoline, a 20lb propane tank, and my 250 gal propane tank (I had a plumber set that up). I filled it with the oil that came with the generator, replaced the oil dipstick with a magnetic dipstick from GenExhaust, ran it for 30 minutes on gasoline and then 30 minutes on propane, and then changed the oil to a 5W-30 synthetic.

Powerhouse!

I purchased this generator to replace an older smaller one. The size is quite a bit larger but not the sound! It is noticeably louder but for the amount of power added I don’t mind. This generator will play multiple roles for me, used for bowfishing and running all of my equipment, to power our camper whenever we boondock, or back up power supply for my house if the power goes out. Being dual fuel makes it nice. I plan to run nothing but ethanol free gas but if we are without power for an extended time I have multiple large propane tanks! No more freezing when the power goes out!

Portable emergency generator

I bought this for emergency power for my house with the added bonus of portable power for my welder or camping trailer. The electrician was finishing the transfer switch panel when it arrived and I had the generator prepped and plugged in when he was finished. It fired right up and will power anything in my house just not all at once. The electrician and I were both impressed with how quite it was. I like the dual fuel feature as the propane will not go stale like gas. My wife appreciates the remote start.

Huge, heavy, and super quite!! This is well built!

Unboxed and installed the wheels, front legs, and handles, this has to be done before adding oil!! Once you get it upright on its on its wheels and feet, you can add the supplied oil. This comes with a small tube/funnel to use to fill the oil and all the tools you'll need to assemble it. they aren't cheap flat metal tools either! The side panels have sound deadening foam and it really works, this was so quiet when it was running. I used LP gas out of a 20lb bottle to get it started and ensure it works out of the box. I connected a compressor up to it and let it go. Barely even acknowledge the load from the compressor. With LP gas, expect it to take a second time to start due to the priming. I am beyond and impressed with this, I am looking forward to losing power now just to let this thing power my small house!

Solid initial evaluation

I have only used this for about 1 hours. I assembled it which was straightforward. Quality seems good. Ran good. Hooked it up to my 50 amp generator sub panel and ran it up to about 50% power on propane, no issues. I obviously cannot comment on long term durability or fuel efficiency but so far so good. Only negative I could say so far is that some of the fittings on the propane regulator/hose were loose, but that's understandable. Also, the propane tubing is too short in my opinion.

fantastic generator

Bought this to powwer the house and central AC in a power outage. I am in Tampa and almost yearly we are without power for up to a week due to hurricanes and sometimes more often than that. I did install a soft start on my central air and with this generator I can run my whole house. It is amazingly quiet as well. I have only run it with poropane thus far and it starts right up every time. It is also extremely quick and easy to open the covers to check the oil or disconnect and reconnect the battery for storage. They seem to have thought of everything. I am super pleased with my purchase and newfound piece of mind.

IGEN11000DFc

Just picked up this new inverter. Installing the wheels, handle and hooking up battery was a breeze. Have not had a chance to use generator on house waiting for electrician to connect plug box to house. Overall very impressed with quality of product at this time.

Consider weight and size if putting in RV basement

This generator is quite large and heavy. I have to figure out a way to store it in my RV basement. I bought ramps and will have to get some sort of wench so I can get it by myself into basement. I don't think even two men could do it by themselves. I cannot recommend yet until I figure a way to store.

Great Generator

My husband searched long and hard for the right generator before selecting this one. It had all of the outlets and the amps we needed. It arrived on time. Would definitely recommend. While it hasn't been put through the full paces, it started effortlessly and worked well while it was being tested. We are now prepared for hurricane season 2025 but hopefully won't have to use it.
