You get a good little genny
11 of 11 found this helpful Pulled it out of the box, then the smell of Chinese Factory hit. Next put on the wheels, handles, put in the oil, hooked it up to a propane tank, turned the key and she fired right up. It's not an inverter genny so it's a screamah' , but works well for the money. I have it as my back up for the Mutant, Zombie, Biker Apocalypse.... can't store gasoline in any large quantity. Propane stores forever.
Update: I've been running for a few months now. (It is no longer my back-up).
Since I'm off-grid with a solar set-up, living in the interior of Alaska and since the Sun doesn't really shine a lot during Dark Winter, the generator is getting run about 6 hours a day to keep my battery bank topped off.
The 240V breaker is pretty sensitive and will trip off with motors requiring surge (like a Fridge) when my battery bank is charging. I've turned down the Battery Charger to about 70 amps DC, but even that causes the breaker to trip more than I would expect.
Also consumption is kinda higher than expected. I've only run propane so can't speak to gasoline, but I'm averaging about 0.30 gallons propane an hour. a 100 lb tank filled with about 24 gallons of propane will last between 70 - 75 hours of run time or between 10 - 15 days. Depending on weather and charge rates.
Another note, even brand new it consumes Oil. We have to make sure and check the oil everyday and usually have to fill the reservoir about once a week.
Overall for the price........ well, you get what you pay for. For a little over $350 u.s. I can't really complain. At that price you an get two or three for same thing made by Yamaha or Honda.
Also buy some ear-muffs....... Good lord is she loud!!
