That's pretty impressive that that will run that roof AC I had a different model generator that was also inverter a couple of years ago that would run a window 5000 BTU AC unit but I would start it first with the Eco mode off and then I can switch to eco mode but this one has a lot more power than the one I had the inverter generators are really great definitely game changers for camping and tailgating
I thought so, but wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything. Had a hard time starting mine, but upon further inspection the spark plug cap was disconnected. And then I had to start it with the choke on "Run" instead of "choke."
I bought one of these generators.......took a while to get it started the first time....then burned out the gas.....and tried to start it the next time, 9 months later.....no start. Long story. all generators are delicate pieces of machinery. If you buy one, just plan on educating yourself on small engine repair.
the generator is in storage at the moment so no hours to check, but it runs great. The only issue i had was needing to rejet it for the higher elevations. I got some jets direct from the manufacturer and install was pretty straight forward.
Will not maintain that ac for long time. 15 minutes tops. Than the breakers kick out. I even have soft start. . 90 deg. Day will not run a 13500 ac roof air 😑

Was it in eco mode for this demonstration?
When you said "It helps if I turn it on" what were you referring to? I don't see an "on" switch, just the choke, run, or off.
i was referring to the choke

Does it provide the promised 2200 continuous watts?
Mine won’t start when it’s cold outside. Bought Jan 31, 2021.
Great educational video. Very helpful. Thanks
you are welome
What adapter are you using, can you provide a link please.

Did you do a dba level test?
no, but that generator is allowed in national parks because its below their noise threshold
Thanks bought this from a liquidator used. Had no idea how to start it. Do you have any experience with solar generators?
Sorry i dont
Thanks for the info i just bought mine today
you're welcome and you wont be disappointed
How many hours do you have on the generator now? Any issues?
the generator is in storage at the moment so no hours to check, but it runs great. The only issue i had was needing to rejet it for the higher elevations. I got some jets direct from the manufacturer and install was pretty straight forward.
Can you either show the plug your using into the generator or lead me in the right direction
thats just a standard RV to 110 adapter you can get anywhere
if i use this to power directly with extension cord does this need to be grounded? earth??
no

Runs mine as long as I need. I did have to rejet the carb though
@@jonathandavis6926 really. Can you share how you did it. Interesting in doing this 🤔
Didn't that thing got recalled for catching on fire.
looks like only 4500 were recalled but worth checking in to it and see if your model is part of the recall
Only models made in 2017 for about 3 months. They corrected the issue at the factory for all generators leaving the factory after that.
how hot was it outside?
it wasnt very hot out but ive run in the summer and it ran fine also. I usually try to shade the gen when its running to avoid adding extra heat
@@jonathandavis6926 the 2500 will run a window a /c and small frigde?
@@mindfk394k yes it ran everything in the camper in the video
