Yes james, I was surprised too! I’ve never had a generator that ran my compressor. I know you do a ton of generators, I think these are great at a fraction of the price of those small Hondas
Regarding long-term storage: I store my generator with diesel or kerosene fuel in the carburetor. To do this I drain the fuel tank and carburetor then pour a cup full of diesel into the tank an let the carb fill with this and turn the engine over a few times to suck the diesel into the carb jets and ports. DONE. Ready for long term storage. Drain the carb and tank and fill with gasoline when ready to use.
Great introduction video!!! Based on your video I purchased the Powersmart 2500 model and the 4800 model in the Wen badging. Only the Wen model was available in my area. Both are great generators and i have tested both and they are great units. Thank You!!!
@MowersNBlowers it's a Inverter generator and it runs about 60db so it's Pretty quiet still. And got it for $830 out the door with there 25% off insider Coupon
@MowersNBlowers we live in Oklahoma, the weather is carzy here. Last week we were getting 80mph winds and powerful thunderstorm. Now this week we are back in a heat wave.
Henry. I have a question for you regarding this Power Smart 2500 watt inverter generator. I live in Staten Island NY where we get occasional power outages from Con Edison, our electric company. My Frigidaire refrigerator uses 1000 watts of running power. Will this generator handle that appliances power surge when the compressor kicks in?
@MowersNBlowers Thanks for the reply. I haven't been able to find out what the power surge would be on a fridge that uses 1000 watts running. Since I'm only concerned with that appliance. I wanted to get the smallest unit that could handle the job. As far as heating backup. I have 2 18000 btu Mr. Buddy propane heaters which can maintain a reasonable temp in a power outage. Again thanks and I will probably have to go with a larger unit. I'm considering a dual fuel generator.
@@MowersNBlowers I work retail at a box store.... and I see mostly powersmart brand gets the most returns plus they have no parts to offer.... to fix their products... I have worked on many mowers of theirs.... (no parts available) Cheer
its better then siding with nazis and a dirtbag comedian who showed up to our capital and said the billions we dont have seeing as were trillions in debt, isnt enough lmao and that my son and daughter need to go die for his cause 🤷 yeah go russia
@@rebelyankeesshow5686 you’ll be paying a lot more if we had to support the rest of NATO if the Russians took over Ukraine, but that’s a lesson in war that you obviously skipped.
Great review, Henry! Thanks for this really useful info. I appreciate that you want to get your viewers relevant info on useful tools. Plus, when @jcondon1 is commenting your videos, you know you are big time. That guy knows his stuff.
Great score. I am surprised it started the compressor with ECO on. Most cannot go from 0 watts to more then 1/2 load unless eco is off.

@@MowersNBlowers you cannot beat the price.
Definitely a great value provided they last.
I bought this engine last year and it works great, you are doing a great job, thanks for the video
It’s not an engine
It’s a good helper when I go camping. It can help me charge various devices. My friends say it’s very cool!
So many fake commenters
Thank you, Your videos are well-made, and I hope you can bring us more introductions to great products.I love this one!
I'm so ready to buy this. It's like they made it just for me
What’s stopping you?
I like this 4500w，GOOD!
Its hurricane season the timing is perfect !
Nice! It's exactly what I am looking for!
So buy it!
Love the color looks great
Color isn’t important
I need a 4500W one, 2500w is not enough. thanks
So why bother commenting? Just buy it!
It's so convenient, I like POWERSMART.
Is that a new product,i've never seen 4500W from this brand?
Link in the description
Until today!
Both of your generators will run that compressor.
hi where can i order this generator?
their official website
Well if you watched the video you’d know I said the link is in the description. You obviously didn’t watch, you’re like a fake commenter.
Nice product, well done.

As long as you drain your carb, no need for anything else.
No oil came with this one well at least you have a big supply of oil Henry
Slowly depleting the supply bro

Glad it was helpful! And both at a fraction of the cost of a Honda! Hope you’re subscribed
Just picked up the new 5,000 watt generator from Harbor freight its pretty good and runs everything i need to
Is it loud or quiet like these? And what did it cost?

I think the bigger one I reviewed would
Work, I haven’t tried it on a kitchen size fridge except my gas 3500w generator worked.

@@joejohnson2478 yes I wouldn’t count on the smaller one to be able to power a full size refrigerator. Get the bigger one.
Chances are got 14 gauge wires walls maybe 12 gauge yellow. 14 gauge rated like 13 amps ir so 12 up to 20 amps. Unit puts out 30 Amps in right plug.
Whatever all that means, it works well.
@@MowersNBlowers lol means generator puts out more amps wall plug
Loved the video 👍and i like this generator too.
Great review..... I'm just (not) a big fan of the Powersmart brand...... The build quality is very weak.... Cheers Mowers N Blowers
I’ve had lots of POWERSMART stuff, never had a problem
You’ve never owner their generators how do you know?

That’s true
Hi Henry, are you in Law enforcement of any kind?
Retired from the mid 90’s, why do you ask?
@@MowersNBlowers i noticed your new gun safe and your new guns,
Oooh cool! You should subscribe to my gun channel too
I'm first to your new video henry
Yeah Chuck! First baby!
That Ukraine flag on the sleeve lmao
Why? Are you wearing a Russian flag on yours?
its better then siding with nazis and a dirtbag comedian who showed up to our capital and said the billions we dont have seeing as were trillions in debt, isnt enough lmao and that my son and daughter need to go die for his cause 🤷 yeah go russia
I think you might have your head screwed on wrong, but I guess one person has to root for the tyrant.
@@MowersNBlowers lmao thats all facts, I don't listen to msnbc or fox. Keep donating to the cause ✊️
