I’ve had this generator for 3 years. Best bang for the buck for what I need 95% of the time I need a generator. Take care of it and put stabilizer in the fuel and run it a few times a year as preventative maintenance. I can power our fridge/freezer and basement freezer plus lights during outages. I did the math for startup amps for the appliances. Start the fridge/freezer first, then the freezer, then lights. To use our microwave I unplug the freezer and fridge/freezer, then repeat all of the above after done with the microwave. This has allowed us to make it through a 14 hour outage while still running the Harman pellet stove. Awesome little generator that’s nice to your electronics.
@@TheDeliveryGuy It runs a 1500 W heat gun no problem. But it's the AMPS that matter. It will only handle 13.3 amps. Look at the sticker on the heater. If it draws less than 13 amps it will work. If the TV is an LCD it will likely work fine. I'd turn on the heater first then the TV.
Best review style ever. Just the facts, everything measured, no loud background music or zooming cameras. I guess you can tell by the sudden run of comments that HF just put this on sale at $529 with a link to your review in it. Subscribed so you can get paid.
We have used the ruclips.net/user/postUgkxOTeIs0vv4_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!
I just had to say that this is one of the best and most in-depth reviews I've ever seen. Thanks so much for putting so much into it. Very much appreciated.
I bought this generator and use it to run my portable air conditioner 14 btu, as well as a shop light and hair clipper in my mobile dog grooming van. I have to turn off my air conditioner to run my dryer. Never had a problem with this generator. I'd buy another one if this one broke. Its used 8 hrs a day and its been 3 years. I've only changed the oil nothing else. Usually starts on 2nd pull.
I'm happy to hear that. Durability was a major concern of mine. I've heard Honda uses better quality bearings than HFT and other less costly clones. My needs for a generator would be for five or six camping trips a year for our rocket club range ops in the Oregon desert, and then put it away for the winter until the following spring. I don't want to buy a less expensive generator if it's only going to last a year or two.
I bought one 4 years ago and have been lucky enough not to need it but feel confident in it because of this review. I really enjoyed the build quality and it started flawlessly the 4 times I started it. Thanks Kevin! Lastly, Harbor Freight is a great tool supplier IF you do your homework.
Got a returned one for 1/3 the cost after talking to the manager. I didn’t get the box or all the wires but it runs great. Should be enough for my furnace, fridge, and Wi-Fi. 😄. I start it 2 times a year and run it for a few hours and put in fresh fuel. It’s so quite you will not draw attention to yourself like regular generators do. That is very important.. if a large region has prolonged power outages people will get desperate and start taking generators. Be safe 😮
I used one to power my cabin. It was super quiet could handle any load I put on it. The motor is excellent the problem I had was the crank rope broke also a small plastic pulley behind it broke could not get replacement parts.
Just give you a heads up that is Harbor Freight generator extended warranty is definitely worth the money I fully expected mine to fail within the first two years however that wasn't the case the peace of mind that comes with the warranty is well worth it it's been 3 years and 2000 Plus hours
I have one of those for the camper. It’s been sitting around for over a year and I pulled the cord once real slow to just make sure it wasn’t seized or something. I pulled it again and it started right up. It’s a great little emergency generator. I’m going to figure out how to use propane to run it.
Great review. I was especially interested in the "pure sine wave" output. I would have liked to see the actual waveform on an oscilloscope at various loads, to verify the purity.
I run this same generator about 300 hours and it still looks new. Change oil every 20 or 30 hours the engine is tiny and only holds a like ten ounces of oil. You'll hear it start to sound different. Change the oil right away.
Awesome review. However there are design changes to the evap system in 2022. My first one took over 30 pulls to finally start. Once running and with 200 watt load it would rev up then slow way down and repeat this constantly. Second start was more than 30 pulls again. Exchanged it for another one. It started on second pull. But still had the constant surge at 200 watt load. Starting after that was very inconsistent sometimes second pull sometimes wouldn’t start. Returned unit. And got last years 3500. Works perfectly.
To make these last make sure you runs and flush the oil a couple times when you first but it. Also o Put a magnetic dipstick to collect any metal floating in the oil. Boom just added years to the life of the generator.
Great review. We picked one up this weekend because the power in our camper went out. Much louder than I would expect given the whisper quiet name. And quite hard to start the first time. Plan on returning it
Nice video. Couple things. 1. You DO have to put fuel stabilizer in your gas. It says it on the generator and in user manual. 2. Read the manual. There are numerous detailed things specifically to do and they are not explained here. I understand you were focused on performance mainly but you missed all the initial startup details. Too many for me to go over here. Great video though!
What brand do you use for the stabilizer you use for this predator inverter just got one today and it’s a used one but looks very well taken care of and practically new . And in one full tank how much of stabilizer do you use ? And do you use every time when filling the tank all the way?
Use star Tron stabilizer. It's made by the company that makes Starbright waxes and polishes. It is superior to stay bill as it goes to the molecular level to change the gasoline instead of just covering it with an antioxidant agent. That gums up carburetors eventually. Had that happen to my generator. Also, if you can get ethanol free gasoline you're a big step ahead. I use star Tron in ethanol free gasoline and I'm currently using gasoline that I put in 5-gallon cans 3 years ago with no problem. The generator I'm using is the champion 2500 watt dual fuel inverter generator. It went for about six hundred bucks at Walmart. And parts and service from Champion is fantastic! 15.4 amps 120v Outlets and weighs 39 lb. Noise level is 54 decibels at 20 feet on eco mode setting. Run time is about 9 hours on 50% load with a 1.1 gallon tank.
Thanks Kevin, I'm about a year late to this party, but I enjoyed the video, liked and Subbed. I bought 1 of these 4 days ago to use along side my 12 year old Honda EU2000i. May decide to connect and run them together.
Fantastic video.!👍 Also I was grateful for the links to them Portable Generators. Sure like the cost of the Westinghouse vs HF. Thanks again young man.
Great video. I was looking for a predator... probably two vs one. Any ideas: remote electric start, dual fuel, quiet, clean electric inverter? Thank you
it looks like this one may be the one that fits your needs. dual fuel, remote start. I have reviewed and still own their 2000 version and haven't had any problems in a year and a half. (see my other videos)amzn.to/3oruUSN
I know this is an old video so hope you respond... I just bought this today 5/18/2023 brand new! It will not turn on at all when doing the knob to the start option but it will when i leave it in the RUN position... not sure what to do
thank you! it does not come with a grounding cable, but they are easy enough to make yourself. I personally have never used one and it has worked out OK.
This is about as quiet as they get. Here is an amazon link to a dual fuel version of my favorite generator: amzn.to/2Zntwsf. I tested the gas only version here: ruclips.net/video/s-fCCDQyLvk/видео.html
Check out the champion generators. They have great Factory reps that will help you if you do have a problem. They are quieter and run longer with a higher amperage output. They are also possible to purchase and dual fuel propane and gasoline. The runtime on gasoline is about 11 hours at 50% capacity.
Awesome review, I was wondering if when you do the braking time period. Does that mean you can’t use it before that 30 Hrs. Or how long do I need to really run it before putting it to use? Greatly appreciate the help. I don’t have a predator, but I purchased a different brand. I would like to know as I’m not really to familiar with generators.
you can use it during those 30 hours, but don't use more than 75% of the running wattage during that time. Since this generator is 1600w running, 75% is 1200w max draw during that time, then change the oil and your break-in process will be complete.
Very well explained 👏 I'm gonna follow you. Question What appliances you suggest to connect to this? Example: can I connect a fan and maybe two lights??
Thank you! This will have no problem connection a fan and a few lights. It will even power some air conditioners, microwaves, hair dryers etc. they should all have an amp or watt rating. This can do 1600watts or 13.3333 amps

@@gerardorockerman69 , my favorite 2,200 for the price I found was the Generac. I have about 400 hours of runtime out of it for the $300 I paid. Hasn't skipped a beat and she's whisper quiet.
unfortunately you will not find a battery system that will support running a 1500w heater for any significant amount of time. I would recommend looking into a propane or small marine wood burning stove heater
Most of the similar competitors have upgraded to 1800 watts continuous over the old 1600 watts. This is a good enough reason not to buy this unit now. There is no reason to limit yourself if you don't have to.
Bought this thing a month ago. It threw piston into sparkplug smashing the plug flat and shattering the piston. Never let it get low on oil. Changed oil every week. Less than 300 hrs. total run time @ 50% Good luck it's a P.O.S
I want to get one to run my DJ gear for outdoor events. 2 pretty big speakers, power my laptop & DJ controller…do you think this is a good one for that? It’s $549 at Harbor Freight right now for Memorial Day, they say it’s normally $749 🤷♂️
yes it will, I think a better use would be a battery though, since generators don't have an amp hours rating, since that is related to energy storage, not energy creation.
Walmart carries a Baopower 2000 watt inverter generator which I bought as a responce to a 6 day power-outttage at 20 ° for the first 4 days. I live in a small x-timber town in Oregon on the I-5. How wise or foolish was my purchase?
Inverter generator provides ‘cleaner’ and more consistent sine wave energy. It’s better for more sensitive electronics like TVs and computers. I prefer inverter generators over non inverter.

depends on a lot of factors, but 13,000 should run a house no problem.

@@TheDeliveryGuy that is possible but a 1500 watt heater on high is right at its limit. It will work or not 50:50. 😀

it is a while! took me a few days to break it in since I didn't run it at night.

How much oil you put for the first time and what grades onthe predator 2000
I appreciate the review information I have just one question . How many hours did you ended up doing for brake in period ?
I’m considering to buy one
Break in time was 30 hours at no more than 1125w (75% of running watts). I varied the rpm between low idle, fast idle, and running a 1000w heater.
Prefect review. Thanks man

Will this generator power a ResMed Airsense 10 CPAP machine for 8 hours? it requires 55 ah.
yes it will, I think a better use would be a battery though, since generators don't have an amp hours rating, since that is related to energy storage, not energy creation.

Can you get the propane adapter for the 2000
it looks like there are adapters available on the market, but not from harbor freight, so I think it is a "use at your own risk" situation
Will this power a 47 inch tv for 4 hours?
yes
Can you run a welder on it (millermatic 141)
What's the difference between a generator and an inverter generator? What's best?
Inverter generator provides ‘cleaner’ and more consistent sine wave energy. It’s better for more sensitive electronics like TVs and computers. I prefer inverter generators over non inverter.
