We have used the kzfaq.infoUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!

That current monitor looks handy. Just to be clear the gp3300i is 120 volt. Thats one leg or phase. The monitor is made with two hot legs output. The one leg from the generator is divided into two legs because the motor home has two hot legs. In this case the two legs are from the same one leg in the generator just heading in two parallel paths. Conclusion, add up the current on leg one and leg two to get the total current output that the generator is putting out on its one leg.

great video! i’m considering this generator for my new RV as it should be able to run the A/C which is nice to know. i do want to explain some things with regard to your surge protector. since the system isn’t grounded while running on generator and is considered floating, the surge protector isn’t going to provide any protection as it needs a path to earth ground to discharge the energy of a surge. this is not an issue however because there wouldn’t be any voltage surges to be concerned about since you are not connected to the utility. you are tricking the surge protector into thinking you have a grounded system with the grounding plug but it’s really not protecting anything. you may have known that but just wanted to clarify that the surge protector isn’t necessary while running on generator but you do have the metering function which is nice.
@GeneratorReviews
@GeneratorReviews 2 жыл бұрын
Earth Grounding the generator with the RV and Transfer Switch are not recommended. Bonding the generator is recommended for Rv’s and Transfer switch only with no earth ground. Surge protector helps with the generator putting out high or low voltage or running out of gas by cutting power to the load. Thanks for watching

This is the one I’m looking at getting because it’s half the price of one of those nice Hondas, but with more wattage than those Hondas, because the power goes out so often here in lake forest park, above Seattle, and I want to save our food and charge our devices with extension cords. I’d get a bigger one if we had a transfer switch, and we’re only renting. I’d install an hour meter and run a high quality break in oil for the first few oil changes, then switch to synthetic.

Oh, man! I'm liking this generator more and more. I wonder if it would start a 15k RV A/C without a soft-start on it? I think that would be the tipping point for me. Because if it can do that, I know it will be able to do pretty much everything else, within its power capability, of course. Hope you'll be giving it a real workout after the break-in period. Really like to see how it handles the stress you are good at putting it through.😁

I have both the gp3000i and gp3300i. The gp3000i runs my marine 16.5 ac with soft start plus battery chargers, tv, box fan and dvd player. The 3300i makes less power and you have to shut everything but the ac off or it will trip the breaker in the boat on nearly every compressor cycle. Plan on a 5 hr run time. I'm a generac dealer but if on a budget and of you have the space the electric start wen3800i will net you almost 7 hrs run time, electric start and 20lbs heavier. Has wheels and fold out handle. Both have crappy warranty support for electrical issues. Briggs and Honda are much better for warranty support. I no longer recommend the generac products.

@GeneratorReviews
@GeneratorReviews 2 жыл бұрын
That’s not a silly question that’s a good question. You know how people say a generator surging that means the voltage is fluctuating from 80 to 130 that could cost so much catastrophic damage to all the appliances inside your home and Rv a good surge protector would shut off if your generator start surging or run out of gas and drop that voltage low enough to damage stuff. Most times we use generators are in storms what if lightning strikes your generator?

I don't understand something. Maybe someone can reply to me. This generator gets oil. But, what else runs this for hours ?? It can't possibly just be this small amount of oil that comes with it in the box ?? If it's only the oil that runs this, then how often is the oil supposed to be changed ?? I'm guessing every 40 or 50 hours ? Is this run with propane or electricity or gas ??

The generator works on gas and the oil is to lubricate the engine.

@@GeneratorReviews Got it. 👍. One more question please. If you were to hypothetically, run it on gas for 24 hours straight, how many gallons of gas would it need for a rough idea of how much gas is needed for this generator ? Or to make it simpler how much gas is needed per hour ?

Generators are funny in that they sit a long time with old gas in them and i once cleaned the carb main jet area, and emptied the bowl but came back 2 years later and it wouldnt start and that area was clogged again?? Quick clean and first pull it started!! So i surmise that the old sticky fuel got in there over time even though tap was off and gummed it up for first start. SO.. i have flushed all fuel out and changed the oil and left it totally fluid dry and will know if the gremlins are back when i need it again on next Aust blackout thanks to silly green energy trying to make up base line requirements and generators here will be needed more often till we can get nuclear or put back coal and gas as thats all you have on this planet currently till fusion can be made work...

Do not buy generac portable generators. I've ran them for years. I am an authorized seller of their portable generators and parts. After years of sales we had a local warranty and getting the warranty has been hassle. Bad inverter on a gp3300i out of the box. China knock off generators have better customer support and don't run 900 dollars. If you want a good generator that has proper support buy a Honda eu series. Generac is a joke. For 22 years I've been in the outdoor power equipment industry and never found a company this bad, they make Popeyes look like Chick-fil-A.
