User questions & answers

Question:	Where is the wheel kit that fits the 3600v
Answer:	Around $100 from Home Depot and westinghouse, was unable to find one on Amazon. Or you can do what I did and go to harbor freight and buy a $30 kit. However you will have to do some slight modifications. (IE) Drill and widen out the existing wheel mounting brackets to accommodate the larger axles. Then mount the handle to the frame with some bolts and 2 hose clamps. good luck.
Question:	How much oil needs to put in to start
Answer:	The generator is shipped with a quart of oil and it fills up with less than a quart.
Question:	Hola, ese generador es de 3600v, ?? Por que la descripción dice wg
Answer:	Thank you for reaching out. This description is referring to the Westinghouse wGen2000. The Westinghouse wGen2000 has 2000 running watts and 2500 peak watts. I hope this information helps. Thank you! Jimmy, Westinghouse
Question:	Esta planta mueve un esmeril y un taladro. Es para montarla en un camión de auxilio vial para gandolas
Answer:	Buenas tardes, primero debes saber cual es el consumo en vatios tanto del taladro como del esmeril, en las especificaciones tecnicas de cada equipo puedes conseguir el consumo en vatios. Lo que aconsejo es que el consumo de los equipos que vayas a conectar no superen en arranque los 3200 vatios para que el esmeril o el taladro trabajen de manera holgada y no exijan mas de su capacidad al generador electrico.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will the iGen2200 be adequate to supply power to an ordinary apartment with full-sized refrigerator, computer, lighting, but no AC
Answer:	Should be as long as you do not have any high power demand requirements hooked up like blow dryers, heaters, frying pans, microwaves etc. Just stick to the frig, computers, a few lights and you will be fine. There is a power meter onboard so if you get to the power limit you will know and can remove a few items to stay within limits.
Question:	If I want to plugin my electronics like my fan and laptop, phones, etc, do I need to buy additional cabling? thanks
Answer:	Hi! The great thing about inverter generators is that they are perfect for powering sensitive electronics like your laptop and cellphone so there is no need buy additional cabling for that purpose. There is two standard 120V 20A household outlets and two 5V USB ports. If you wish to connect more items than the number of receptacles allow, then we recommend buying an additional power strip to accommodate for that.
Question:	Este producto mueve un aire 110 de 12000 btu que consume 10.5amp? Cada cuantas horas se le hace mantenimiento como se el momento exacto y en que cons
Answer:	Posiblemente, pero te dejará con poco margen. El momento clave será al arrancar el compresor del aire. Un aire basicamente tiene ventilador para circular el aire y compresor para enfriar. Los 1800 vatios que brinde este generador equivale a 15 amperes. 2200 equivale más o menos a 18.33 amperes. El problema no son los 10.5 amperesque consume el aire cuando corriendo pero que cuando prende el compresor consume de 2 a 3 veces lo que demandará la unidad tipicamente. Es en el prender el compresor que más probablemente tendrás dificultades. Como el aconsejo, yo en tu caso compraría un generador más potente.
Question:	I ordered the igen2200 peak watts and what I received says on the box 2000.... anybody else get that
Answer:	peak watts means it can produce that much for a short period but will run long term at 2000. it's like overrevving a car engine. you would not run it at 6000 rpm for very long if you want it to last.

User questions & answers

Question:	If ran through either a 120v plug or a 30 amp adapter plug to 1 outlet in the house, is there a limit on how much you can power from one outlet
Answer:	definately restricted by the particular wiring in your home to that outlet 15 or 20 amp MAX.

Answer:	69-decibels. generatorfactoryoutlet-dot-com. About like your typical lawn mower.When you have no commercial electricity, it will be the sweetest sound ever.
Question:	Is this big enough to power a small house in an outage of several days to a week (I know nothing about electricity and generators). Thanks
Answer:	It cannot run your entire house. We typically run a full-size freezer, refrigerator, several lights, and our internet router. I have run this generator for up to 48 hours, but most of our outages are in the 8-12 hour duration. I run this unit 2-3 times per year. I run drop cords from the unit to my critical stuff. It starts easily, and runs 8+ hours on a tank of gas under our load. When the power goes out, it takes me about 10 minutes to roll it out, start it, and get everything plugged in. It has never let me down, would definitely purchase again.

User questions & answers

Question:	Has anyone gotten a good propane consumption rate yet? The description seems too good to be true....20 hours on a bbq tank
Answer:	hello I have a 3500 w strictly propane and used it during Sandy I poweredy whole house by rigging the board .I actually powered the boiler circulating pump for heat 2 refriges and a freezer besides some lights.I had to juggle appliances once in awile but it ran great .I went through a 100 # propane cylinder it took 2/ 12 hour days and one 8hr day running all those appliances.No prob.We actually ran tje washer once during that week cause some people stayed with us
Question:	What are the physical dimensions of this generator. Description says 28x30x40, thats huge. Is that right? Is that length width and height? 40" tall
Answer:	I just went out and measured mine: 26" tall x 30" wide x 22" deep. I suspect the dimensions given are the packaged dimensions.
Question:	Is the propane hose included
Answer:	I just got mine and the hose I got is five feet long.
Question:	What can i do to stop my propane tank from freezing in at night in the florida summer? this is connected to this generator. help
Answer:	Having used quite a few propane heaters,generators,and torches(large ones) I can safely say the best way to stop the frost is to reduce the pressure on the tank. The easiest, simplest safest way to do that is to get a higher volume tank. If a 20lb tank is frosting badly you are drawing it to quickly,try a 40lb or better even a 100lb tank. Your frosting problem will go away.

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the dB rating on this unit
Answer:	50 dB at 1/2”. That is what the manufacturer is saying. Without a standard it is worthless information. I can claim mine is 47 dB but that measurement is at 30’ from the quietest side another claims 57dB but that is at 10’ Reporting the max reading from any side. Guess which one is quieter? Every generator is 0dB if you stand far enough away.
Question:	Where is it made
Answer:	Most of Generac’s products—like the XC Series portable generators—are built right here in Wisconsin. However, the iQ3500 is manufactured to our specifications by a partner overseas.
Question:	Where is it made
Answer:	Same as my DuroMax XP2000iS. These are all Yamaha clones. I paid $450 for mine. Same exact generator, just blue instead of orange. Also, the Pulsar PG2300iS at $429.
Question:	Generac 30 A for RV
Answer:	I have a Rockwood 233s travel trailer with a 15k air conditioning unit. This runs the whole unit, lights, fridge, water pump fans and AC no problem.

Product description

Remember when you had clean and quiet portable power? The WEN 2,350-Watt Inverter Generator provides clean energy, free of voltage spikes and drops, without all the noise of a regular generator. Produce up to 2350 surge watts and 1900 rated watts of power. Our 79cc 4-stroke OHV engine operates at an extremely quiet 51 decibels at quarter load, quieter than a window air conditioner or the average conversation. This limits its invasiveness while camping, hunting, tailgating, and restoring backup power. The WEN 2350W 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 39-pound design makes for easy portability while the ultra-efficient one-gallon tank provides over 7 hours of half-load run time. The fully-packed panel comes equipped with two three-prong 120V 14A NEMA 5-20R receptacles, one 12V 8.3A 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 gasoline. 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. Backed by a two-year warranty.

• Ultralight body weighs in at a mere 39 pounds for easy transport and storage

• Fuel shutoff maximizes the generator’s lifespan by using up the remaining fuel in the carburetor before shutting down
• Includes two three-prong 120V receptacles, one 12V DC receptacle, two 5V USB ports, and a two-year warranty

User questions & answers

Question:	Is there any generators comparable in price and amenities (quiet, light) that runs on propane
Answer:	One commenter wrote “I then converted it to tri-fuel (gasoline/propane/natural gas) using a kit from US Carburetion (kit MSK3202).” Using the MSK3202 to switch from gas to propane could result in a large THD (Total Harmonic Distortion) since “One can typically expect to get around 10 – 15 % less power from a propane generator compared an equivalent gas generator.” chainsawjournal Or using the MSK3202 to switch from gas to propane could result in an unknown THD plus 10 – 15 % less power.
Question:	Will this run out of the box? Does it include oil
Answer:	No Oil! Comes with the funnel to fill the oil. Once oil and gasoline are added it fires right up.
Question:	What are the true differences between this model and the 56200i which is more money, but seems to offer less features?? thanks
Answer:	I have both, the 56200i is heaver and slightly larger, it also has a fuel gauge. The 56203i is noticeably quieter and puts out slightly more wattage. You won't be disappointed with either of them.
Question:	Who makes the Engine
Answer:	Its made in China, its a copy of the Yamaha 79cc engine. Very reliable if you take care to service it properly.

User questions & answers

Question:	Parallel is there a way to parallel these and use them to the full potential? Or get 240v
Answer:	No. I went through this the hard expensive way. You would need to wire these in series, not parallel. It is confusing for us non-electrical engineers. It would be a good idea to make a series kit because in my estimation most people who can afford a 50Amp RV aren't going to screw around with two generators when they can buy a Honda EU7000is. There are no consumer grade (affordable) 240v propane inverter generators available. Just loud dirty power.
Question:	The fuel is gasolinera or LPG or propane gas
Answer:	The iGen4500 runs solely on gasoline. We also offer the iGen4500DF, which runs on both gasoline and propane.
Question:	What is the Dual Fuel option
Answer:	Gas (liquid) or lpg propane tank. Really nice to have
Question:	cual es el costo de envio Puerto Rico
Answer:	I paid 995 for the machine. I don’t know how much shipping is to PR. But I do recommend the machine. It works great

User questions & answers

Question:	Can you use the pull start because it looks like the metal panel is in the way according to the picture
Answer:	The design is not optimal. The panel is in the way to pull the cord straight out. You pull it at a 90 degree angle, outward toward the handles. Mine starts pretty easily, usually one pull and it's not a hard pull. The cord housing is rounded, so the cord won't fray when pulled at 90 degrees.
Question:	What is the noise level
Answer:	To me, the noise seems low/reasonable. It has a large automotive style muffler (not a small lawn mower type). The generator mechanism itself also makes some noise, but not too loud. Actually, i thought this cheaper generator would be louder so I'm very pleased with the noise level. In fact, everything about this generator works well and seems to be high quality especially for the low price. I've not needed it for an actual outage yet, but I've run several tests through my transfer panel with various load levels for 15-20 mins at a time with perfect operation.
Question:	What type of gas should be used? Or does it even matter
Answer:	Alcohol free if possible. If not add a little Ethynol remover to the gas. Also if this has a fuel shutoff valve you should close the valve and let the engine use all the gas in the carburetor so it won't get all gummed up from the alcohol in the gas. I have a 6500 watt I have been using regularly since 2005 and keep it running great this way.
Question:	Can someone confirm if this (gas only) unit has an automatic choke? I'm seeing no reference to a choke lever/switch on pics or video
Answer:	Yes it’s a choke lever it’s hard to see , but it has sticker pointing it out , This generator is a beast had mine for 5 yrs just used it for first time 8/11/20 had gas in it & everything started up & ran like a champ , had 2 full size fridges , sump pump , injection pump & 65 gallon fish plugged up didn’t budge 👍🏾

User questions & answers

Question:	can you have in parallel a 4,000 Watt generator and a 2,000 Watt generator using the parallel kit
Answer:	Yes, I have it in my 2017 Ram and it charges both batteries.
Question:	Anyone know which magnetic dipstick can be used for this generator? (please if you have a link to it, it would be helpful
Answer:	Yes hence the trickle effect!
Question:	This run with “gasoline”? In the top says Gas but in the description says gasoline
Answer:	Yes, each set of leads are turned on separately. I recently just used it to charge my Polaris Ranger with one set and my Kawasaki Mule with the other. Only bad thing is that it does not come with clamps, it is just eye terminals, luckily I had some old battery clamps lying around the shop to use. I think it works well, done charged up everything up I own.
Question:	Is pulsar a good and reliable brand? Are their engines similar to those of the major brands? And is it worth the almost $500 for the portable 2000w
Answer:	There's 3 options for different batteries

User questions & answers

Question:	How many amps on the main breaker
Answer:	50
Question:	what device is used to connect to a breaker box
Answer:	An electrician must install a 50 amp receptacle located where your emergency generator will be located in an emergency. This receptacle must be hard wired into your electrical service circuit box, and connected to a spare 50 amp breaker that is connected to a safety lockout bar with your input main breaker. This ensures that between the input breaker from your new receptacle , and your input Main breaker from your power company, only one breaker may be in the on position. Your power cord (included with your generator) will plug into the new receptacle.
