Description

The Champion Power Equipment 4250-Watt Open Frame Inverter Generator is one of the most innovative products on the market. Our advanced technology and innovative design will improve the way you power your life. Champion’s got convenience covered. Starting and stopping your generator from up to 80 feet away with the wireless remote key fob is a snap. First, we cut the noise level in half by integrating Quiet Technology digital components used in more advanced inverters. Then, we created an efficient mechanical design to decrease the overall footprint and weight by 20 percent. A quiet, lightweight addition to your RV and a cost-effective power solution, this Open Frame Inverter is smaller, quieter, lighter…BETTER! Champion’s recoil start features Cold Start Technology, plus the reliable 224cc Champion engine produces 4250 starting watts and 3500 running watts, and runs for 22 hours at 25% load when the 4-gallon fuel tank is full. With a 0.6-quart oil capacity (included 10W-30) and a low oil shut-off sensor, this inverter operates at 64 dBA from 23 feet, which is a bit louder than normal speech. Confidently connect your sensitive electronics since this inverter produces Clean Power (less than 3% THD). Our Quick Touch Panel offers fast access to all your controls. The Intelligauge monitors voltage, frequency and operating hours with ease, while Economy Mode monitors power consumption in real time to reduce engine wear and tear. As the electrical load is reduced, the inverter reduces engine speed, providing quieter operation, extended engine life and higher fuel economy. The covered outlets in this RV Ready inverter include a 120V 30A RV (TT-30R), two 120V 20A household outlets (5-20R) plus a 12V automotive-style outlet, and a handy dual port USB adapter. The optional Parallel Kit (sold separately), with included standard 50-amp RV outlet, provides a clip-on connection which allows you to increase output by connecting up to two 2800-watt or higher inverters or digital hybrids. Buy this fully assembled 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.

    • High output, low noise, and excellent customer service.
Style: 4250-Watt + Gas + Remote Start
I live off-grid on a ranch. My two story cabin is solar powered. I had a backup generator that I used for a number of years. It finally gave up the ghost so I ordered this Champion Power Equipment 200953 4250-Watt Open Frame Inverter with remote start to replace it. With six snowstorms back-to-back, we've had a few times that the batteries in the cabin got low and I needed to run this generator to run the cabin and recharge the batteries. Although rated at the same wattage of my previous generator, it handles starting surges much better and is much quieter. It can recharge my solar batteries in less time than the old generator. Living at 6,500 ft. (1,981 meters), I needed a high altitude main jet so I called the factory to order one. They sent me the jet along with instructions for free. I had it in a few days. Changing out the jet was very easy. I had it done in 10 minutes. The generator purrs like a kitten. PROS: • It meets its published specifications on power output, even at high altitude. • It is much quieter than a non-inverter generator. • It uses significantly less fuel compared to my old non-inverter generator. • It has a high current NEMA 30 Amp receptacle, which is ideal for the 30 Amp generator inlet for my cabin. • It also has an 8 Amp 12VDC cigarette lighter receptacle. However, it does not provide two or three stage charging for recharging lead-acid batteries. It is mostly suited to running lights and 12VDC appliances. • It has two 20 Amp 120VAC standard receptacles. • Each power receptacle has its own breaker. • It has a well filtered pure sine wave output, suitable to run sensitive equipment on. • The voltage is well regulated as I would expect with an inverter generator. • It starts up automatically even in temperatures below zero. • The remote allows me to start the generator from inside the cabin (see also my CONs) • It is smaller, lighter, and yet more powerful than my old generator of the same rating. • It comes with a wheel and folding handle kit included, which I don't use. • A synchronizing circuit allows it to be stacked with another generator of the same model for double the output. CONS: • If the generator has not been used for 12 hours, it will no longer respond to the remote. You have to go outside and press the start button on the generator once to wake it up so it can be started remotely. I wish there was some way to override this behavior. Since the generator is on my covered deck, this is not a deal killer for me. • The instructions say that if the generator has stopped responding to the remote, press the start button on the remote twice. I wish that worked but it doesn't. Perhaps I'm not understanding the instructions. • It does not come with a cover. That must be purchased separately. I think that is pretty standard fare for generators - not really a con but something to be aware of when purchasing. CONCLUSION: I really like this generator, despite its minor cons. It offers great power output in a small form factor. It is quiet comparatively, well regulated, and easy on gas. Product support is excellent. It offers good value for the price. I highly recommend it. ... show more

    • A reliable, light-weight generator
Style: 4250-Watt + Gas + Remote Start
This champion features 4250 peak watts of power and it's light at around 90 lbs. It's easy to carry because of the steel rail-tubing construction, and the gas valve and engine connector cable-plugs are easy to reach. The generator will run 6 or more hours on a single fill, which amount to under 1.25 gallons, despite their booklet stating it's a 4-gallon tank! My gas can holds 1.75 gallons and you can't empty it into the tank as it requires about 1/2" (I use 2") of clearance to safely operate. The generator runs quietly and the remote works, and is easy to reset, if necessary. My last Champion ran for over 2-years without any issues, but with yearly maintenance running around $200, it made better sense to buy a new model, especially when Amazon offered it at 50% off the retail price. I gave it a 5-star rating because of its reliability and overall features, however it is not perfect— (1) the wheels are cheap and wobble when pulled over dirt/gravel trails because they're held in place with cheap cotter pins. I removed the wheels, added 2" diameter larger wheels with short threaded axles at one end so I can lock the wheels securely with washers and lock nuts. Larger, beefier wheels allow for easier rolling up hills without any annoying lateral wobbling. But, when increasing the wheel diameter, you must elevate the front, short legs to keep the machine level on the ground. (2) unlike other Champion models, oddly, the ignition wires are too short, making it cumbersome to kneel next to the machine to view the wires when you're either connecting or disconnecting them. (3) the cheap plastic carabiner will eventually break and you could lose your remote control unit. I replaced it with a small, inexpensive stainless steel carabiner. (4) though the remote control works, when you change batteries, you'll be dismayed by the inefficient design in how the battery is inserted into the remote. I'm surprised they lasted for a couple of years without failure. Champion could have engineered a better remote as they are cheap to produce. Thicker plastic, how expensive is that. Think of automobile remotes. (5) the gas tank filter/fill gage indicator is a disaster as the filter slows the pouring of gasoline into the tank and the gauge is worthless, mine didn't work from the start and is unnecessary because you run the generator until it stops. No big deal. On the positive side, they build inexpensive generators that are quiet, reliable, some provide remote controls, and rail-tubing that makes transport easier and keeps the engine cooler and a steel loop to clip your remote control onto, in addition they are lightweight. I run a single demolition-type jackhammer on it without any issues, and it doesn't tax the operation of the generator. However, operating 2-tools simultaneously will tax the generator, thereby decreasing its lifespan. Finally, the steel tubing used to pull the generator along the ground works great, unlike some of their other models that incorporate plastic handles that flex, and are too short, which causes the generator to crash against the back of your ankles when you are pulling the generator. This version's handle is perfect in length and makes hauling it a breeze. I like using Champion's generators and all future purchases will be the rail-framed models. A great generator at an extremely inexpensive price. Thanks Amazon. ... show more

    • Mixed Emotions…UPDATE!!!
Style: 4250-Watt + Gas + Remote Start
It was a bit of a pain getting it to an authorized repair shop because my closest one is 85 miles away. Champion customer service isn’t the easiest either. Spent a long time on hold to finally get an actual person on the line. That being said, it has worked flawlessly for 2 years now. The fuel economy is better than expected and it’s relatively quiet. Not Honda quiet but good enough for me given the price tag. We use it for multiple camping/hunting trips each year and County Fair for my kids and their animals. I updated it to a 4 star. I bought the 4250 watt remote start version of this generator. I was looking forward to the remote start for those late winter camping trips when it’s too cold to want to go outside and start the genny. Received the genny quickly and it was packaged well with no damage. It was easy to follow the instructions for assembly and setup. Once I started the break-in process, I started having issues with the remote start. It only went downhill from there as the remote start completely stopped working and the digital functions on the front of the machine blacked out. It would still work via recoil start but that was it. We took it camping once to see how it functioned and as a generator it did just fine but none of the convenience features worked. It’s louder than I hoped it would be but not too terrible. Certainly not a Honda but less than half the price of the two 2200 watt units I would have needed. It has now been in warranty repair for about 3 weeks and I’m hoping to get it back in time for my next trip in November. Overall I’m fairly disappointed in it failing in just a few hours after initial startup. ... show more
