Description

The Champion Power Equipment 201183 2500-Watt Portable Dual Fuel Inverter Generator with CO Shield® is ideal for camping or tailgating. Weighing in at an ultralight 39 pounds, this model is one of the lightest 2500-watt inverters in the industry. Thanks to Champion’s innovative design, power on the go has never been easier. Champion’s EZ Start Dial makes getting started quick and easy. Power up with the reliable recoil start, plus Cold Start Technology ensures a quick start in cold weather. Included are a covered 120V 20A household duplex outlet (5-20R) plus a 12V regulated automotive-style outlet, and a handy dual port USB adapter you can use to power your phone, laptop, or similar device. This inverter operates at 53 dBA from 23 feet – about the same noise level as a dishwasher. Just add oil (included 10W-30), and operate your Dual-Fuel generator right out of the box on gasoline or propane, and easily switch fuels with the EZ Start dial. When the 1.1-gallon tank of gasoline is full, the 79cc Champion engine produces 2500 starting watts and 1850 running watts and will run for up to 11.5 hours at 25% load. When using a 20-pound propane tank, it produces 2500 starting watts and 1665 running watts and will run for up to 34 hours at 25% load. Connect this Parallel Ready inverter with another Champion 2500-watt inverter for 30 amps of power. The optional parallel kit (sold separately) allows you to integrate two inverters, plus the kit has a standard 30A RV outlet and a 120V 30A locking outlet. Confidently connect your sensitive electronics since this inverter produces Clean Power (<3% THD). Designed for safety with a low oil shut-off sensor, this model has a 0.5-quart oil capacity (included 10W-30). Champion’s Inverter Technology includes smart Economy Mode, which monitors the electrical load to reduce engine speed, noise, and fuel consumption. Fully assembled with hassle-free setup, the built-in carrying handle makes transport a cinch. Buy this EPA certified and CARB compliant generator with confidence – Champion Support and our nationwide network of service centers will back up your purchase with a 3-year limited warranty and FREE lifetime technical support. CO Shield technology monitors the accumulation of carbon monoxide (CO), a poisonous gas produced by engine exhaust when the generator is running. If CO Shield detects unsafe elevated levels of CO gas, it automatically shuts off the engine. CO Shield is not a substitute for an indoor carbon monoxide alarm or for safe operation. DO NOT allow engine exhaust fumes to enter a confined area through windows, doors, vents or other openings. Generators must ALWAYS be used outdoors, far away from occupied buildings with engine exhaust pointed away from people and buildings. Meets the requirements of ANSI/PGMA G300-2018.

  • Reliable and easy to start up
Size: 2500-Watt, Dual Fuel
Great generator - this thing is a war horse as per reliability and durability; if you need generator backup. easy to use; maintain it well and be sure to read all instructions.

  • Sounds good. Easy to set up.
Size: 2500-Watt, Dual Fuel
So far, so good. I really like that it can run on propane. You can store propane probably forever. I have only run this on propane, and do not plan on running on gasoline. It is a little hard to get started. I follow the instructions and start in the choke position. Then 4 or 5 easy pulls. Then to the propane run position. 4 or 5 really strong pulls. Then back to the choke position and repeat. Eventually it starts. It seems to run a little ragged until a load is put on it, or take it out of eco mode. I changed the plug to the NGK, but did not improve running. I changed the oil to a synthetic oil after the break in period. No change. I may try adjusting the valves. I only plan on running this when we lose grid power, and I need to charge our solar batteries. I live in the PNW, and we do lose power several times a year. Nice to have another backup! ... show more

  • Replaced a big bulky Predator 2500 and am not looking back
Size: 2500-Watt, Dual Fuel
First trip with the Champion went really smooth. I'm using it for the thirstier appliances in our RV trailer - microwave, electric fridge and AC, the rest is handled by our newly installed solar setup. This Champion replaced a dying Predator 2500 which was heavy, dirty barely running and leaking oil by the end. I'm going to try to keep the Champion only on propane so it stays clean and can be stored in the trailer. Assembly was easy, poured the oil it came with, hooked up the propane regulator it came with and it started cold on the second pull. Ran it on variable lighter loads as recommended for a while to "break it in". During the trip everything worked as expected, no drama. Started cold in 2-3 pulls, despite me sporting a nasty case of tennis elbow. Ran smoothly and quietly on propane. Almost hard to believe how light and small it is compared to what I am used to. Lifts with one hand, easy to stash in the truck or trailer, secure and comes with everything needed to get it going. Will report if anything odd develops in future camping trips, but I doubt it, it feels well built and quality. ... show more

  • Plenty of quiet power
Size: 2500-Watt, Dual Fuel
First, I was impressed by the detailed instructions and everything you need to get the unit running, oil, and even a funnel to add oil. They thought of the little things, like the handy clip for the LP cord to organize the kit. The unit starts easily and is quiet on eco mode even when outputting 1,000 watts. My only complaint is the unit is bogging down and stops charging my Eco Flow Delta Pro at around 1,100 watts but Champion rates this model for more than 1,800 run time. Maybe I need a shorter cord. ... show more

  • Duel fuel and somewhat quiet
Size: 2500-Watt, Dual Fuel
Perfect for our camping needs. We used it a few times where we had no juice in VT state parks. I rigged it up to use the on board propane tanks on our 30 ft trailer via the griddle gas output(with a slight mod), so with the wonderful dual fuel option, no need to tote an extra gas tank. It is light and compact enough that I can one hand it into the trailer storage or put in back of the truck. It starts up easily. The generator noise is moderate especiallywhen taxxing from heavy loading. I beleive I was able to run the AC unit with this also. ... show more

  • Always Five Stars for Champion
Size: 2500-Watt, Dual Fuel
What a great generator! This is my third Champion; one was stolen, and the other I gave away. All of them have performed flawlessly. They are always easy to start and run like a sewing machine, and this generator is no different. I love the propane fuel option. Also, there is very little effort required to pull start the generator. I assume it has a compression release system. It is incredible how small and light these newer inverter generators are. I also own a Champion electric/remote start 4500, but it is too heavy to haul around for camping. I also own a Yamaha 2500 watt generator that is twice the size and weight of this Champion and costs more than twice as much. This Champion generator checks all of the boxes for me. ... show more

  • Nice and quiet and terribly heavy

It is a Champion after all. It's quiet, doesn't weigh a ton and has duel fuel. We got this for camping and for our freezer when power goes out. Great price and got to us in good time

  • Great little Generator
Size: 2500-Watt, Dual Fuel
We live in an area that gets yearly tropical storms so we needed a generator. We used this generator for our fridge and lights during the last hurricane. It worked great. We like that it is duel fuel, easy to carry and that you can connect it to another generator to up the power. We ended up buying a second one to do just that, since we bought a portable a/c for the next storm. ... show more
