Wanted this to recharge my solar batteries and supplement power in an emergency. Was particularly looking for Dual Fuel and I keep more propane hanging around than gasoline.
It came with the propane regulator, a spark plug wrench (spark plug is pretty far in the case), oil and a funnel (for adding the oil). Funnel is much appreciated as it screws into the oil port and has a o-ring to prevent messes. You will need a 3/4" wrench to snug up the propane regulator to the generator.
My first start was using propane, it was tricky and took about 20 pulls until I figured it out. After that learning experience it would take me about 5-6 pulls to get it going on propane. Read some of the other reviews that talk about it. Still seemed easier than many of those reviews.
It has a 1 gallon gas tank in it, and it is a plastic tank (yes, no rust). Starts very easy using gasoline, 2-3 pulls.
Eco-mode varies the speed to the load, it works but seems it is louder when running slower. But I still like this feature.
Overall it is very quiet for a generator, and you could probably add an after market muffler to the current exhaust and it would be much quieter. But don't take that wrong, this is very quiet running.
Super easy to move around or toss into the bed of a pickup. Handle is great and it is fairly light.
Inverter runs well, load tested it with heat gun and shop vac (about 1,400Watts). Also ran my computer with it and it ran beautifully even though it is not rated as a Pure Sine wave inverter it worked flawlessly. Unfortunately I didn't check the voltage at various loads so I can't attest to its voltage stability... it just worked.
Manual says it had a 12V battery charger, but that is simply Not true. Version I had did not have to connections on the panel. But a USB port is there and works as advertised.
Overall excellent, true hand-carry portable generator at a great price.
