MaXpeedingrods 3500 Watt Portable Inverter Generator Gas Powered, EPA Compliant, Compact and Lightweight for Home Backup Power, Outdoor Camping, RV and Trailer

I am extremely impressed with this generator. I bought it for use with my 30A Travel Trailer in the hopes that it would run our AC while "off-grid". I love that it has a direct TT30A receptacle that doesn't require any adapters. Not only does it run our AC, but can do so effortlessly, even with the "Eco-throttle" engaged. It is very quiet. In practical use, I cannot tell it from the "red ones". I would need a dB meter to be able to tell you if there was an actual difference (I may borrow one and update this review). With it running outside, right next to the corner of our trailer, I can barely hear it running when I step inside, and if the AC kicks in, it actually makes it impossible to hear the genny at all, because the fan / compressor noise from the AC unit exceeds that of the genny humming outside. I had considered a 5500W 240V model that was twice as heavy (on wheels) and actually produces LESS 120V power "per leg" (To get max watts out of a 240V generator, you need to draw from both phases, so 2500W per side. So if you need a lot of 120V single-phase power, this is it! This little beast makes 3000 running watts, with 3500W surge. The red one I am referring to is 1800 running watts, 2200 surge. It costs over 1000 US, and is only 8 lbs lighter, weighing in at 47 lbs vs this one at 55 lbs. I plan to take good care of this little generator, and since I won't be using it commercially I expect it to last me for years. Yes, the red ones have (or at least used to...) an outstanding reliability record. I believe they are beginning to see some competition enter the market...

I ordered this inverter to use at my RV lake house on the weekends. Still in my first week with it, but it powers my entire rig, and is VERY quiet. I have an 1800w inverter as well but it just isn't as strong. Now I can use the fridge, a 3 gal 110v electric water heater, my portable 8k BTU floor A/C and all kinds of cabin power for lights, TV, sound bar, phone charger, juicer, etc. all together. Might even try my air fryer today. I kinda feel like I should send somebody somewhere some more cash for this because it is amazing! Plus the weather proof bag and included parallel cable and even a 30a adapter plug are awesome. It only weighs a bit more than my 1800w. The engine is much larger though and you can hear the bass in it once you fire it up! 2 yr warranty as well. Excellent buy. 👍🏾👍🏾

I didn't review this when I bought it two years ago - but as it's now run for 20 hours non-stop after a major power outage here in Pittsburgh, this thing deserves more starts...I did have a no-start issue with it, turned out the spark plug cable was just loose and I had to press it on.It also once overheated, but I had it maxed out in 90 degree weather in the sunlight, so that's my fault.This sucker just keeps on ticking even though it's getting abused. It's saved thousands of dollars of food in this outage, a bonus above just using it for my camper like I usually do.It's lightweight, and the noise is really low unless it's running full throttle - and when it is, it's no louder than any other I've ever heard.

Horrible generator. Purchased this generator last year for off grid camping. After performing a break in oil change and running the generator for one hour on propane, the generator never stopped leaking oil. Every time i moved it around the garage there would be a new puddle of oil under it. After contacting maxspeeding rods directly and explaining the oil issue, and asking for an exchange on a brand new generator, they continued an annoying back and forth email where they tried to say it was overfilled, etc etc, never agreeing to an exchange, and to where i finally got tired of arguing with them and ceased contact. Fast forward a few months later, i haven’t had an opportunity to use the generator. Last night we had a bad storm and a power outage that may last days. I got the generator out that again, had one hour on it, and the battery is dead, and the generator will not start with the pull start and a full propane cylinder. When it’s needed most, it will not start. Do not buy this generator and the customer service is awful.

Like everything about it, extremely quiet. Runs my camper with no effort. The propane option is key for this. Plus the remote start is great.
