User questions & answers

Question:	Does it come with an oil fill funnel
Answer:	Yes, this machine comes with an oil funnel. Thank you.
Question:	I see the 100468 parallel kit has a 30a outlet. can you connect this device to only one generator and use that 30a outlet with only 1800 watts power
Answer:	30A at 120Vac is 3600W. Each generator has half that, so 2 are needed. You CAN buy an ADAPTOR for a 30A receptacle, but ~15A is all you can source from a single generator of this size.
Question:	Is this unit able to convert to duel fuel
Answer:	Unfortunately this model is designed to strictly run on gasoline, not dual fuel. If you are interested in a 2000 watt dual fuel, we recommend looking at our model 100402. Thank you!
Question:	Is there a way to drain the fuel out of the carburetor so it doesn't gum up
Answer:	I would also spray carb cleaner in there too because draining it is not a fix, it's just better than not draining. They usually have a vent hole in the carb you can spray into, then ideally you run the gen on carb cleaner for a bit to ensure all the gas is out. For example the idle/intermediate jet is extremely small and its emulsion tube will hold fuel after draining. This jet is no fun to clean if plugged. So running it dry is much better than draining, and running it dry on carb cleaner is better still. So if you plan on not using it for a while I'd figure out a way to make that happen. This bs is the #1 reason I use propane. The second reason is storing gas is a pita and imo dangerous, propane is easy and safe. Third is run time on gas isn't very long but even on a little 20lb propane tank it'll run 4x as long. I have a 100lb tank so 20x as long. So imo it's easily worth the extra $ to get the dual fuel version.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can I run my AC
Answer:	Air conditioners require a certain amount of power (watts, which equals voltage [120 for plug-in, 240 for most central units] multiplied times current draw in amperes ["amps"]. and that's the running power it needs. But when it starts up, for a brief time is pulls more power to start, and for air conditioners the starting power required is more than for a lighter, easier spinning load like a window fan, so you need to identify the starting power draw. Generator ratings show a running power level and a starting power, compare to ensure you get a sufficiently powerful generator, and include all other loads that will connect to it (lighting, refrigerator, etc.), even though they will be less than most air conditioners, it all adds up.
Question:	is this rating "this inverter operates at 64 dBA from 23 feet" at peak draw, or idle
Answer:	The industry standard for measuring inverter output is 25% load.
Question:	I know the product dimensions are listed but they don't specify which is height, length and width. Can anyone please help me with that? Thanks
Answer:	I went out to measure and my approximate measurements are quite different than what's listed. I measured roughly 18inW x 20.5inL x 17.5inHWide I measured across top, front to backLength I measured across front from side to sideHeight I measured from ground to top, including height of gas cap. Hope this helps.
Question:	What makes this a hybrid generator? Is it an inverter generator, or something else
Answer:	We are using the term hybrid in the sense that we have taken a traditionally fully enclosed inverter style generator and put it on an open frame like a traditionally non-inverter style generator. This allows us to use a larger engine and increase output power while decreasing cost. The trade off is that this machine will be slightly louder than fully enclosed style inverters.

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:	start a 13500 btu AC
Answer:	We have a 13,500 BTU A/C in out 2004 Mountaineer and this generator starts and runs it with no problems. We leave the generator in "economy" mode all the time and it naturally revs up when the A/C starts up, but has never failed to do its job. Also, we run it only on propane... it's never had a drop of gasoline in it.
Question:	Looks like it would weigh more with the battery and starter. Not much heavier than the 75531i
Answer:	Rope start backup.
Question:	How to connect to 500 gal tank
Answer:	mine is connected to our 500 gal tank but it took some work going back & forth between the tech at champion (have to get the right one) and my propane company. i had propane company put a quick disconnect valve at the house, where the propane goes into the house on the low side of the step down valve, then i had them make me a 20' hose that connects to the diaphragm / hose that champion provides minus their regulator. There is a limit on how long the new hose can be as the pressure will drop with distance and you do need a minimum about of gas pressure for it to work. (see other answer from Champion here). Triple check w/ both Champion & your propane company. Also when you turn it on to run, the gen will have to pull out the air in the hose, takes several short cranks on the gen and if it's cold out you may end up having to pull the cord - takes some practice w/ the choke. Once the propane is flowing it's easier to restart if you don't disconnect the hose from either end. I used it this way for 22 hrs recently and it worked like a charm. Don't forget to check the oil regularly. The diaphragm must be exposed to ambient air pressure but also must stay dry.
Question:	Does this come with the lp hose? And what connection is it
Answer:	Yes it does. The hose connection is std. 3/8 propane connection like a barbeque uses.

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:	What type of fuel do you put in
Answer:	no, it has a pull start but it pulls very easy. Never had to pull more than twice. Electric starter is just one more thing to go wrong on a generator
Question:	Has anyone converted theirs to propane
Answer:	The Westinghouse product I am interested in will not ship to CA. What makes this odd is this exact unit is sold online and in stores here in CA. If it were in stock I would gladly buy locally. Maybe these situations will slowly bring Amazon to its long overdue knees.
Question:	Does it have an electric start
Answer:	I don't have it but from what I know about it is that you can measure watts for long period of time, So - reset meter, set it to continuously measure watt*hour (WH, watt for 1 hour=60 minutes*60=for 3600 seconds), connect your turned off amp, turn it on and immediately turn it off exactly after 1/2 second. Meter SHOULD show wattage consumed for 1/2 second because they say it measures power FEW TIMES PER Second (though still will be measuring after amp will be turned off, but it is ALMOST not consuming power) - that will be your surge power - multiply it by 3600 and by 2 (because 3600 for hour and for whole 1 sec it would be twice higher) and divide it on 115, or whatever voltage will be during measurements (put voltmeter to measure voltage, or just measure voltage before starting test, though voltage can can change fast). And you will get average current for first 1/2 sec. If you manage to turn it off exactly after 1/4 sec (but don't forget to multiply measured WattHour by 3600 and by 4, because 3600 higher for 1 hour and for whole 1 sec it would be 4 times higher) then measuring current surge will be more accurate. This calculation imitates WattHours consumed by amp as if it worked with average current equal to surge current for 1 hour, and that is why you divide those WattHours on voltage to get average current equal to surge current (which actually happened only during part of first second). So, if meter accurate enough to measure small power consumption then all this will work.But remember: amp MAY not like it, though SHOULD Tolerate such thing - anyway, don't blame me if something happens to it. I would do that myself, i believe this is not unusual for amp.
Question:	Why won't it ship to California
Answer:	Be Careful- defeating a polarized plug can be dangerous. The wide prong is neutral and connected to ground. The narrow prong is "hot" (energized) compared to ground. Some devices such as tools, chargers, and others use polarization to reduce the chance of electrical shock. If the device, such as most lamps, doesn't have a polarized plug then there is no concern, an adapter or extension cord is fine. If a device has a polarized 2 prong plug and you decide to use an adapter anyway, make sure the KillaWatt's plug's small slot on front is aligned with the wall plugs small slot and the larger slot on front aligns with the larger slot on the wall plug to maintain polarity. It is impossible to reliably maintain polarity using an extension cord so I would never attempt it. I would never cut off the ground prong, the blade prongs on the KillaWatt are the same size because the ground prong aligns the correct prongs with the wall plug so they do not need to be different sizes. Once you cut off the ground prong the odds are 50/50 of dangerously reversing the polarity of the plug on the front of the KillaWatt since it may, or may not, be plugged in correctly. Similarly if the wall plug slots are both the same size you are once again at 50/50 odds of plugging the KillaWatt in incorrectly with an adapter making the KillaWatt itself an "adapter" permitting you to plug polarized plugs into unpolarized wall plugs. Once again if the lamp etc doesn't have a polarized plug this is not an issue. (If you want to know more about why polarization makes things safer just ask)

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.

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:	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. Unless your an electircian and know what, when , how, and why, you should not even be thinking about doing this ,and if your were, you would already know what your limits are and if you can do it. SO NO, dont do it!!!
Question:	How much oil shoud I put in it. I received the unit but no documentations on the first time oil fill up. Thanks to any and everyone
Answer:	20oz. This is in the supplied manual. Recommended oil is 10W30 for most climates.
Question:	What is the decibel level of this generator? I can't find it listed. Thanks
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.
