I wished I hadn't attempted to lift my new generator out of its original packaging. Still feeling it in my back 5 months later. Great advice JB...as always. Thanks for the comments on a quick oil change after breaking in a new machine. I am on my way to change mine now! A mid week upload...what a treat for your viewers/fans. Can't hit that LIKE button fast enough!
Yep definitely a good idea to change that oil! I’m a school teacher and off for the summer so I’ve been trying to squeeze in a few extra uploads. We’ll see what happens once school gets going again! Appreciate you as always my friend!
I got a job at a small engine repair place, and I’m my 1.5 months(😂) I have never seen this brand. But it looks pretty good. The most I see is champion, and there generators and inverters are always pretty solid.
If the most of the generators you see in your shop are Champion as you stated, then that is saying they are the most problematic and not at all “pretty solid”. At least that is how I interpret your comment as it is worded.
I have a champion 4000 that has ran 24 hours a day only being turned off for fuel and oil check daily. It's been running over a year literally. I change the oil in regular maintenance every week
They have been around a few yrs there prices are great problem being is right no there biggest I think is 4400 wat what you charge to repair they could get a new one. 😂 That's why your not seeing them plus they run a long time I got 3 no issues run one everyday great on 2 gallons 11 hrs my old generator 5 gallons 7 hrs.
There's a battery on the other side, it come pre installed, but not plugged it, after that battery charges you can press the power button to start the generator without pulling the cord all the time
Personally I’d rather get a predator generator because they’re better quality. I could probably make ten jokes on how Powersmart isn’t so smart when it comes to their equipment. Anyway, I’m in Bear Lake Utah this week, so far I’ve been riding my ATVs on the trail and zipping across the lake on a jet ski. And the best part is that I’m only two hours away from home.
Hey BCSERK! Like you I’m keeping my predator around too! Bigger gas tank! That’s awesome man! Sounds like a fun trip! Wish I was on a jet ski right now! 👍 enjoy my friend!
u ever think abt getting a riding mower? - so many of these high end push mowers be so expensive... might as well get a used riding mower off of marketplace.
@@electroddxful probably gonna be kicking back editing most of the weekend! Rolled my ankle on a trail run last nite! Gonna be sitting around for a bit YouTubing all day!
Hey lordnet during a power outage people try plugging as many high power items into a generator. Cheap Power strips typically can’t handle splitting up that much power and burn up. Thanks for watching!
The plastic panels are a pain just to replace the pull rope. My experience with them can’t even imagine the smaller parts the battle you have to deal with, no thanks! Just build a small pallet box for weather and sound. Better than dealing with all the plastic and screws.
I have bought different brands of generators, this brand also bought last year, in comparison, this brand is pretty good, I plan to buy their lawn mowers and snowplows
Meh.... I might try out a PowerSmart lawn/snow tool. But a generator? Maybe for camping. But home back-up? No way in Hell...... If my PowerSmart lawnmower craps the bed, oh well. If my PowerSmart gen set fails during a power outage, I'm one pissed off MF. I have a DuroMax 13000w (10500 running) gen set with a 50amp cord that plugs into my main panel via a transfer switch. I can run everything in my house including two window A/C units, the fridge, and all lights and outlets. Total cost for the entire set-up was around $2,100 including my electrician friend doing the wiring. Anyway....... Rant over. 😂🤣😅 Way to keep up the honest, no BS reviews JB!! GREAT vid as always....... 👍
Wow my friend you got the real deal going on over there! Wish I had that! Someday! This is my last PowerSmart review! I think they had enough of my honesty lol! Any plans for the weekend bud?
I work hard and honest and was happy to get one on eBay at a reasonable price now I can’t give good reviews because of ups careless worker service this is not good for a customer I will make sure I spread the message in Jamaica word a mouth goes around fast
Sad to say I purchased my generator all the way from Jamaica 🇯🇲 and ups just randomly choose to drop it off outside of the warehouse without actually allowing someone to sign for it and now I can’t get my generator I purchased and eBay this is madness these people are not who they claim to be the hire people who are thieves
Bought my generator on eBay seller said they sent it off and everything they sent me update along the way but ups uncaringly left it without anyone signature a big product as such no one talks about the possibility of not receiving your product nonsense this is bad publicity bad business your company are insure why do I have to be the one to loose I would love it someone would read my comment and help berly just left Jamaica 🇯🇲 I buy my generator because sum don’t shine at night ups is not who the portray to be
@@AwesomeBlackDude Meaning? OK, I'll spell it out to the dimwitted. If you actually pay for a product you review you have skin in the game. That being that you paid for it with money that you earned.

👉Here is a LINK to the GENERATOR used in this video! Thanks for supporting the channel! amzn.to/3DGKy5i
this generator looks so perfect for outdoor use
Thanks for watching
Definitely don’t use it for indoor use
For outdoor use

No repair shop is ever going to work on these. They are disposable equipment.

Count me in for a purchase. This is totally up my alley, no doubt!

I think this has its use for camping or outdoor use. I’ll stick with my Generac standby generator! Nice review JB! Cheers buddy!
Light duty stuff is perfect this generator! That’s a good unit you got there Jay! Enjoy your weekend bud!
You as well JB! You have plans for the weekend?

@@20timesboosted4u9 good tip! Thanks for sharing!
@@GarageGearmight send my 2580w inverter for this … 🤔 should I ??
i would recommend 5w30 full synthetic in case you have to use it in the winter during an ice storm
Good tip!
What's the difference between 4500W CO protection & 4500 Watts inverter ?
@@aleksandrovichkonstantin the co is for carbon monoxide shut off
An honest review. Much appreciated 😊👍
@@skywatcher7272 you got it! Thanks for watching!
Im glad you got at least SOME fuel in it! 😂😂
Hahaha just enough to let it run for the video lol! Have a good rest of your week bud!
@@GarageGearis it worth it ? I have the 2580w but I want to return and buy this one ..

Be buying this one the new model has electric start button
@@Chepo1500 ROCK ON!
@@GarageGear I’m returning the 2580W inverter for this . Thanks 🙏
@@GarageGear this thing is nice and quiet .. it tells the hours also right ??
Fuel hours and what else ??
Hopefully it's not like your lawn mowers very hard to get parts or talk to somebody
I hear that this is more and more of a problem!
I think powersmart is in love with you lol. Nice features for a budget generator.
Hey Smallblock this was my last video for them! It’s been a long road lol! Have a good weekend bud!
Good review. Too many negatives for me. Noise and fuel tank capacity is my priorities.
Thanks for watching wp
Will it safely recharge a solar power station like a Bluetti?
I would imagine so! Thanks for watching mike!
Man now that one quiet engine. I don't know that if Power smart made a engine for a rider lawn mower is very quick?
Hey new! I don’t think they make rider engines. Thanks for watching!
For mobile detailer, this is real deal
I would definitely agree Carlos! Plenty of power to run everything for a small business like that! Thanks for watching bud!
u ever think abt getting a riding mower? - so many of these high end push mowers be so expensive... might as well get a used riding mower off of marketplace.
Not a bad idea but I have no room for one! They take up so much space in the garage!
How do you join 2 together to double your power ?
@@edithrobertson6066 in no longer have the unit to demonstrate but if you follow the instructions in the manual it will tell you how.
Awesome review JB. 👍🙏👍🙏
Thanks a lot electro! What’s the plan this weekend?
@@GarageGear I’m going out to the winery with wifey and friends. What are your plans?🙏🙏🙏
@@electroddxful probably gonna be kicking back editing most of the weekend! Rolled my ankle on a trail run last nite! Gonna be sitting around for a bit YouTubing all day!
@@GarageGear Sounds good. I hope your ankle feels better in a few days. Many blessings 🙏🙏🙏
@@electroddxful appreciate you brother!
Would this be good to paper refrigerator or tv during power outage ?
@@JayyJayyO7 yes absolutely
If that is all your powering it would be rather large. You could likely use a smaller lower power output generator for just a fridge and tv.
Thank You for Sharing
You got it Ken! Thanks for watching!
Wait, you have to unbolt a panel to check the oil level? On a generator? Ridiculous.
Thanks for watching
Awesome power will it run a small ac unit 5000 btu?
@@fashionstreet1 it should! Depends on the wattage needed for the ac unit
I cant seem to unloosen the drain plug. Any suggestions?
@@ronbustillos7987 the one on the bottom or the actual oil plug?
@@GarageGear the actual drain plug
@@ronbustillos7987 you could try putting a breaker bar on the socket wrench to see what happens! That should loosen it for you
@@GarageGear that did it! Thanks!
I wish it was a push button start like the Harbor Freight Predator models
That would be a plus!
It's up to 14 hours on quarter load.
Thanks for sharing
Really like your videos' style and feel they are very informative. Is there a chance to collaborate with you?😃
Thanks for your positive feedback. I am not doing collaborations at this time!
Would you recommend this exact unit for running a 7000 BTU portable air conditioner only thing else would be charging phones thank you
I would say so but it all depends on the power draw.
Super tech oil? Couldn't spring for some mobile 1 or Pennzoil?
Saw a video here on UA-cam of it performing better than Mobil one.
What happens is a power strip is used? Also, WEN has one just like it with elextric start.

Warning ⚠️ DO NOT Screw the dipstick in to take a measurement of the oil level . ⛔️ Doesn’t ANYONE read the manuals ? ? ? ?
Thanks for sharing
Didn't show us the output waveform. YIKES
No I did not but thanks for watching
Does it keep cool
@@joebone1961 yeah it doesn’t overheat
@@GarageGear what about 115⁰ Sonoran desert weather
@@joebone1961 that’s pretty hot. I would reference the owners manual online and check for safe operating temperatures.
you have a lot of small engine stuff......I heard that is hard to get parts for power smart equipment.
Don’t worry not all of it stays! Usually sell it off just as fast as I get it! So I hear as well my friend!
Is it pure sine wave? Why wouldn't that be mentioned?
Not sure!
I have bought different brands of generators, this brand also bought last year, in comparison, this brand is pretty good, I plan to buy their lawn mowers and snowplows

You got it Tony! Thanks for watching bud!
Really shake alot
It does bounce a bit! Thanks for watching George!
Meh.... I might try out a PowerSmart lawn/snow tool.
But a generator? Maybe for camping. But home back-up? No way in Hell......
If my PowerSmart lawnmower craps the bed, oh well.
If my PowerSmart gen set fails during a power outage, I'm one pissed off MF.
I have a DuroMax 13000w (10500 running) gen set with a 50amp cord that plugs into my main panel via a transfer switch.
I can run everything in my house including two window A/C units, the fridge, and all lights and outlets.
Total cost for the entire set-up was around $2,100 including my electrician friend doing the wiring.

If I am getting a back up generator then I want to power my fridge, air conditioner or more than a few power tools and phone.

Yeah o.k. Now total up all the wattage of these devices, then multiply by 3, then you have an idea what size gen you need.
That is NOT quiet.. Take that to a camp ground and you'll piss people off with all the noise

If the company sent you a free generator then your review is skewed and to be taken with a grain of salt.
Meaning 😅
