Style: Dual Fuel Electric Start 4500W
Update after first real use.....so I took this out in the field on a 3 day hunting trip. Here's what I learned.....the run time on a full load, even in Eco is at best 7 hours a tank. I had it hooked up to a 26 ft RV running the A/C 24/7 basically. From Thursday evening thru Sunday morning we burned approx. 21 gallons of fuel. That's 21 gallons in roughly 64 hours so a little less than 1 gallon for 3 hours of run time. Granted we had it maxed out, but alot less run time than I anticipated. So let's talk about the max running wattage. We had the generator overload at a minimum of 5 times. Here's what we were powering, the RV A/C, lights, fridge, occasionally the water pump (that seemed to do it most often) an external shop lighting system, 2 floor fans and the RV fridge. I'm not sure what the total wattage was on all that, but at times it was more than the generator could handle. That said, it was very quiet. I ended up setting the generator on a small little shop step ladder to keep it off the ground, I just didnt want to put the intake that close to the ground. I'll do that going forward as well. It's a heavy little unit, but even with gas in it, I can lift it in and out of my truck. All in all I thought it did a good job. The e-start worked great and like I said it was quiet. The biggest downside was the unexpected fuel burn. Take lots of gas or propane if you're going out for several days. I started with 18 gallons and then had to jake a 55 mile round trip to the nearest town to get more gas. So I’ll preface this by saying I just got the generator so I don’t have a long term review as of yet. First off the packing was good and arrived very quickly. The instruction manual is good and an easy read. Nothing I saw about break in for the motor, but I think we all understand it’s a good idea to run it at idle for about an hour or so then change the oil and run it on a load and change the oil again and go (your procedure may vary). It’s a pretty simple generator, but you have to do a couple of small things first before you light it off, especially if you’re using the E-start (which I did). There are 4 brackets underneath the unit that I assume were there for shipping that need to be removed first thing. The enclosed tool kit (which was a pleasant surprise) has the 10mm wrench you can use to do that. It takes about 2 minutes. Then connect the battery to the lead. This compartment is on the front of the unit and requires a flat head screw driver to open the hatch (oddly enough the included tool kit didn’t have a flat head screwdriver in it, at least mine didn’t and that seemed like a silly oversight). Next the oil, the side hatch for that is opened with your fingers so no issue there. The oil dipstick filler cap is orange plastic. It lasted exactly 1 removal and the. Wouldn’t go back on due to bad threading. The threading on the filler cap is total crap, or at least mine was. Fortunately, I also purchased a metal magnetic filler cap at the same time so I just swapped it out right then and there. I highly recommend that small additional purchase. Besides, a magnetic filler cap will collect small pieces of metal the engine makes, especially a new engine when it’s breaking in. Ok so now we have the battery connected, oil in the crankcase and about 1/2 tank of gas in the unit. Turn off Eco mode, move the 3 in 1 dial past run to the start position and push the red lever like button thingy in on the dial. It coughed for a second then lit right off. It loped for a minute of two until the fuel was flowing steady then settled into a nice quiet hum. I’ve never had a quiet generator so to me it was truly remarkable how quiet it was. I mean it’s really quiet. Now granted Im accustomed to my 10000 watt generator/welder when it is running so you might have a different reaction to the noise level. Still, I was talking on the phone about 15 feet away from it and I really couldn’t even hear it. That was at idle, when I connected various tools to it to run it up I still couldn’t hear the generator over the tool that was running. It’s really that quiet. My only 2 knocks on the generator so far is the oil filler cap and the lack of covers for the electrical outlets. The latter I knew about of course when I purchased the unit, but still how hard would it be to add 3 plastic covers on during assembly? In order to protect the unit while not in use I also purchased a WEN generator cover (not expensive at all) and it fits like a glove. Oh, more more thing. The metal oil filler cap I used was really hot. I waited about 10 minutes after I shut it down to remove it and it was still hot so wear gloves or give it a little more time before removing it during break in. I’ll be taking it out in the field next week and it’ll be hooked up to a 30’ rv running everything including the A/ C so I’ll update with gas only run times and anything else that is notable. I’m sort of curious how the bottom air intake is going to handle being that close to the grass and dirt. That’s a potentially big negative if it starts sucking up all kinds of crud. ... show more

  • Good basic generator
This appears to be the same generator sold under so many other names. Well, this one is the most basic version of the three models I looked at. Recoil start (no electric starter), and basic controls (no LED control panel). BUT, I prefer this. Less to break. And VERY easy to pull start --- an 8 year old could start this (and really --- when I might need it in a year or so, would the battery in an electric start model even be charged?). For not much more, you can buy all the glitz, but for my money, 'simple' is better. As far as 4500 Watts? Why is it that virtually the same generator is sold under other brand names as a 3800 Watt generator --- my guess is like so many products, they print what sounds good. I did have one problem, the Owners manual was missing. I sent them an email and they sent it right away (digital). No complaints here. Not a Honda, but at 1/4 the price, I am very happy. BTW: I also have a WEN 2000 Watt inverter generator (which is the smaller brother to this one and which I like a lot). It is only very slightly quieter, and about half the weight. If I have a small electric need, I can use it. But if I need more power, I now have that too. The big question is: Can it make popcorn too??? ... show more

  • Awesome Gen!
After some gas, oil, a bit of hope, and a quick pull of the cord, this baby took a quick whif of ozone and was fired up! Amazing generator that starts the first time, every time. I have not used this in the winter yet so I will follow up this review, if I remember. Haha... But, really there are no bad things about it, so if you're looking for a lower wattage Gen, look no further cuz this thing is MONEY!!! ... show more

  • Super Quite
Just got mine today. I'll tell you I was a little sceptical, only because I've never heard of this brand before. This Gen wasn't my first choice, I was going to buy the Wen 5000 but Amazon raised the price on it $147.00 it in one day, making it cost prohibitive. So, looking at other Gens I found this little JEWEL which was cheaper than the Wen by almost $100.00 before the price raise. $549.00 with a $50.00 off coupon. After unboxing it and installing it in a storage box on the back of my travel trailer, adding oil and gas, I set the choke to on and with a half pull on the cord it fires right up. I gotta say I was impressed at how easy it started. It came with a set battery cables, but no battery. Haven't figured out why it needs one yet, but I will. But, what impressed me more was how SUPER QUITE it is. I had a Westinghouse Gen 3000 that I've been using for the last two camping seasons, but, it was way too noisy for my liking...and other campers around me. Portability and maneuverability isn't important to me, quite was. And this little Jewel is all that. As for it operating the appliances. Air conditioner, lights, fridge and tv under full power, and under ECO mode....i'mma give it five stars. Ran the microwave with everything on under full load, it was a little too much of a draw for that. But, thats not a deal breaker for me, just shut the air off while using it. I'm gonna put it to the real test in a couple of weeks on a camp trip. Bottom line folks. For the price and the operation you can't go wrong with this Generator I highly recommend it!! ... show more

  • It worked for us!
It's a fine little generator right now. Easy to start, not to awful difficult to maneuver around, and very quite. The problem I experienced was after starting I plugged my voltmeter in a socket and it read 142 volts. I attempted to get ahold of Builthard USA at their toll free number and being late it went to voicemail. No problem, try again tomorrow. It went to voicemail all day long. Left a message and they never have responded. In the mean time I read a article on batteries getting weak in a volt meter would give out of sync readings. Replaced the batteries and the generator was fine. Voltage right on the nose, where it should be. Hope to never need to use the warranty on this unit, their not home! ... show more
