  • small enough to tote around in my vehicle during hunting season
Style: 1200-Watt + Gas + CARB
smaller than a lot of generators that it makes it easy to tote around. i require power to run a CPAP for breathing while sleeping and this does the job nicely. fairly quiet due to the small size but it puts out 1500 watts. on a tank of gas you get about 8 hours or so run time depending of course on your power load.. more power means less run time but that is on ALL generators. do a little testing before hand and find out what your run time should be. ... show more

  • It's heavy for it's size but runs perfect
Style: 1200-Watt + Gas + CARB
I got this generator to use on my Bus when I'm out traveling and solar power isn't getting the job done. Mostly to charge up my eBike battery. I haven't pushed it to the 1200W / 1500W limits yet but for the low power consumption items I have used it on, works great. I made a little shade/covered frame for it so it can sit a little ways from the Bus when running but still be protected from the elements. Runs quietly enough for me so far no break downs or failures. Fits just fine in the Bus' undercarriage compartment. Sips gas. Great little generator in my opinion. ... show more

  • CHEAP OVERSEAS MAKER NOT THE USUAL QUALITY OF CHAMPION
Style: 1200-Watt + Gas + CARB
Bought 1 It blew up with 126 hrs on it. Called Amazon and they replaced it twice so I have had 3 of these and I'm telling you this isn't the normal quality you expect from Champion Power Equipment all 3 had bearing failures in the Armature of the Generator Portion. Champion will only send you parts you have to pay to have installed if you experience a failure. In my case they sent a new generator portion and I have to pay to have the work done to switch them out. Also if you buy the protection plan from Amazon it doesn't start untill the 3 year warranty is up with champion. So I found myself with a broken generator that I couldn't claim the insurance on untill after the 3 years is up. These are garbage don't buy!!!!! I'd rather buy a piece of garbage Duramax than this garbage. At least you can use the insurance when the Duramax blows up. ... show more
