    Thank you! Just started the new generator to be sure my mom has her O2 when we lose power here in NE Ohio. This video was great help. Sure appreciate your time and post. Be well.

    Hope U went for the free Champion T-shirt that I saw in the pack. It is a nice T-shirt. Love my Champion 2000 that I use for power outages.

    I’m planning on getting me the champion gen but I am going to get the 2500 watts so I make sure it can run my 5000 btu a/c in my camper if I need it. But I am getting the dual fuel champion. I have a propane outlet on the back of my camper so run a line to generator.

    Great Video, good coverage. I love my Champion 2000 watt duel fuel inverter generator! I personally would use a better quality of synthetic engine oil, then to trust Walmart brand oil, if that's what you meant? I spent about 8.00 on a quart of Honda 10w30 oil, I feel it's the best! Running it for the 100 hours it's recommend for the generator you should use the best oil, that's a long time for a oil change.

    I have this exact generator, and it will run my roof top a/c on the camper. The trick is to start a/c on fan Only until generator catches up. Then low cool and so on.

    I could only get 300 ml (0.3 qts) of engine oil in this unit. Manual says 400 ml. Unit perfect level, oil up to the last two threads. After the first 5 hours of little to no load operation, drained the oil and there was a lot of metal glitters. Going to do another oil change in 5 hours, even though the manual says second oil change at 50 hours, I think it's way too much with this much metal glitter in the oil.
  • Hi, question, on the front of my generator both green lights are on..did I see you turn one off.. why..
  • @danray9744
    The Best Oil to use is SHELL ROTELLA 10w30 or HD SAE30 in warmer weather
  • Is the reason its safe for electronics because it produces pure sine wave alternating current? Does it produce pure sine or stepped ac current?
  • Great video !!I just got one and have a question do you have let it run 5 hours before using or can you use it during the 5 hours break in period ? thanks
