watta little POWERHOUSE !!
By Seth C. Howard
Just a note because i HAPPILY own one of theze little buggers (110v 7.5amp). No ,it aint much but what it is is GREAT ! Bought as LAST generator in southern tier of New York for 2006 floods and NEVER regretted . OBVIOUSLY , it is limited , but it CAN run many tools and appliances ; more than one wood expect. a standard FRIDGE , 5-9cuft freezer (check ratings) , small circular saws , sawsalls , drills . VERY small nailgun compressors . The cig plug batt charger works VERY WELL , but you do need a HEAVY DUTY plug for the socket . standard cig plugs will MELT charging batts , but runs normal loads well . We can run 5hr on 1/2-3/4 load . With good fuel ; EXCELLENT start-ups. Now if you want a actual household "stand by power" , you need BIGGER ; hot water heaters REQUIRE 4500W minimum . but for good occasional ECONOMICAL , camping , or field use , BUY IT ! as with ALL gas-powered products you MUST , no arguing , MUST add ethanol type fuel stabilizer to ALL BRANDS gas . we use premium and have MUCH BETTER results as well . Synthetic oil not a "must" , but does make noticeable difference in small units (after break-in run) . our use , power out , we can run fridge or freezer , TV and computer and couple of lights . start fridge , then TV and add one atta time from there. I HAVE volt checked each run and very stable 115-117 volts even when swap fridge to freezer . neither need be plugged in ALL DAY. well there you go !! i guess i AM satisfied with ours :o) enjoy !!

Louder then expected
By H. Kramer
Extremely easy to use started on very first pull and a lousy one at that. It is not as quite as I expected or was led to believe, but having said that it isn't terribly loud. Too high of expectation ?? Overall extremely well made and easy to use.
