Overview

RV owners and homeowners planning for outages get an open frame gas generator with a travel trailer ready outlet and household receptacles under rubber covers. A cast iron sleeved OHV engine shuts itself off on low oil or carbon monoxide.

Long runtime on a tank and an RV-ready outlet make it a practical backup and campground unit. Oil and tools arrive in the box. It starts by pull cord only, and without wheels it is a two person carry for many.

Who it's for

Travel trailers, sump pumps and fridge backup during outages where noise is not a concern. Quiet campgrounds and sensitive electronics call for an inverter generator.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Long runtime per tank
  • RV ready 30A outlet
  • CO and low oil shutdown
  • Oil and tool kit included
Cons
  • Recoil start only
  • No wheel kit included
  • Noise level not listed

Performance notes

Running watts set what can run at once, and the peak margin covers motor starting surges like an RV air conditioner. Runtime figures assume partial load, so heavy use shortens it. The open frame design is louder than an enclosed inverter.
