Description

Remember when you had clean and quiet portable power? The WEN 2800-Watt Inverter Generator provides clean energy, free of voltage spikes and drops, without all the noise of a regular generator. Produce up to 2800 surge watts and 2250 rated watts of power on gasoline, or connect a propane tank for up to 2800 surge watts and 2000 rated watts of power on LPG. The WEN Watchdog CO Shutdown Sensor helps protect both you and your family by automatically turning off the generator if dangerous levels of carbon monoxide are detected. Our 98cc engine operates at a quiet 60 decibels at no load. This limits its invasiveness while camping, hunting, tailgating, and restoring backup power. The WEN 2800W Inverter Generator is also equipped with fuel shutoff. This feature turns off the flow of fuel, allowing for the generator to use up the remaining fuel from the carburetor before automatically shutting down. This helps fight the build-up and blockages caused by stagnant fuel inside of the carburetor, minimizing maintenance while prolonging the unit’s lifespan. Designed to mirror a pure sine wave, this generator limits total harmonic distortion to under 0.3 percent at no load and under 1.2 percent at full load, making it safe to run laptops, cellphones, monitors, tablets and other sensitive electronics. The lightweight 45-pound design makes for easy portability while the ultra-efficient 1.58-gallon tank provides up to 9 hours of half-load run time (or 13.9 hours half-load run time on a 20-pound LPG tank). The fully-packed panel comes equipped with two three-prong 120V NEMA 5-20R receptacles, one 12V DC receptacle, and two 5V USB ports. Maximize fuel economy by engaging the eco-mode switch. This allows the generator's engine to automatically adjust its fuel consumption as items are plugged into and unplugged from the panel, preventing the unnecessary usage of fuel. Need more energy? Easily link up any two WEN inverter generators using a WEN Parallel Connection Kit (sold separately) in order to share wattage amongst multiple units. Low-oil and low-fuel automatic shutdown combine with the built-in overload protection and indicator lights to safeguard both your generator and your electronics from damage. And because this is a WEN Product, your inverter generator comes backed by a 3-year limited warranty, a nationwide network of skilled service technicians and a friendly customer helpline. Remember when your generator powered your electronics safely and quietly? Remember WEN.

  • Wen 2800 duel fuel generator - great so far
Size: 2800W Dual Fuel + CO Alarm
The media could not be loaded. I purchased the Wen 2800 watt dual fuel based strictly on specs as I wasn't able to find a single review here or anywhere else online about this particular model. I've now completed the 8-hour break-in period using propane only and so far it's been flawless. Starts up around the 3rd pull, runs smooth, all outlets and features work as expected, etc. Haven't yet exceeded a 50% load as required during the break-in, but no problems with output so far. Pleased with the noise level as well, it runs quieter than I had expected. So far so good! The only negative or drawback is that it's a bit bigger/bulkier and heavier than I imagined it'd be. 45 lbs isn't a lot for a gen, but living with a lower back injury a set of wheels and handle would've been appreciated to help move it around easier. Still for just over $400 it seems like a good deal for 2800 starting/2000 running watts on propane, which is a higher power output than most in its class. Overall happy with this purchase so far. ... show more

  • Awesome little Generator
Size: 2800W Dual Fuel + CO Alarm
I have about 10 hrs on this generator and for the price am very happy with it. Works as it should, starts right up and is easy on LP fuel.

  • Worth The Price
Size: 2800W Dual Fuel + CO Alarm
Heavier than I thought it would be. Weighs about the same as a 5 gallon jug of water. Seems well made and fired right up following the quick start instructions for propane. Haven’t tried gasoline yet. Features are well marked. Recoil cord pulls fairly easy. Pretty quiet but not noiseless. Much quieter than a full size gas generator. I ran it off a 20lb propane cylinder with the included regulator. After running about 45 minutes the cylinder seemed not to have lost much weight. Propane supplier says it can be attached to our 100lb tank with a gas grill set up for about $400. ... show more

  • An oily mess, sputtering engine
Size: 2800W Dual Fuel + CO Alarm
I received the generator with a lot of oil all over the outside of it (not quite as bad as the other reviewer had received). I tried to clean it up a bit and then tried using it for a while. The engine sputters a lot and never evens out. I’m going to return it and get a Honda like I should’ve done in the first place. ... show more

  • Runs great
Size: 2800W Dual Fuel + CO Alarm
Started right up, works great on propane. Use it for power for utility trailers to charge batteries and lights inside. Not real heavy and easy to use

  • Great quality, lightweight generator.
Size: 2800W Dual Fuel + CO Alarm
For the first time I lost power at my home due to hurricane Milton. No power for several days. A whole house generator was out of my budget, so after a little research the need for a low wattage generator to run some of the basic items (refridgerator, fan, power for cell phones) this generator fit the bill. Although I purchased after the storm it'll come in handy when the need arises. The reasonable price, fast shipping was a plus. Hope to never have to use it, but good to know I have it. ... show more

  • Great generator for a great value!
Size: 2800W Dual Fuel + CO Alarm
After doing some research, I settled on this generator because it has everything that I wanted (runs on gasoline or propane, inverter/quiet, USB and 12 volt charging plugs, etc.) and because of the price. It did not come with an hour meter but I was able to add one for $10. I'm in the process of breaking in the generator now and will update my review with any issues if they come up. Very happy with my purchase. ... show more
