November 27, 202326 November 2023 GENMAX GM1200i 1000W gasoline generator:
Generator weighs thirty pounds with full tank of gasoline. Usually starts with one or two pulls. Readings from a KILL A WATT meter reveal:
Frequency never varies from 60.0 cycles/second;
Voltage varies with load (resistance heaters)
124 volts at no load,
123 volts at 150 watts,
121 volts at 600 watts,
120 volts at 900 watts.
The hardware is excellent. But its Instruction Manual had enough errors that it changed a five star rating to four stars. Instructions for both starting and stopping the generator are a failure, though by looking at its illustrations and at what is actually on the generator, you will figure things out. One item you will not be able to figure out is the error of stating that the spark plug gap should be 0.032 inches. The gap should actually be 0.024-0.028 inches. I base this statement on three facts: 1) the generator came with a spare spark plug whose gap is 0.024 inches; 2) I have another very similar generator that uses the same spark plug and its gap actually measures 0.027 inches; 3) the manual for this similar generator gives the gap range stated above.

Light-weight, Easy to use, great generator

June 16, 2023I bought this generator for night fishing. It can handle 1000W halogen light easily. It is easy to start. One tank of gas lasts about 4 hours. The generator is pretty light, easy to move around. So far no issues. By the way, the company deliver the generator real quick!
