- For you viewing pleasure, I have a brand new Firman generator that I just purchased at Costco for $699.99. Watch as my son and I unbox and put this fine piece of equipment together.
Nice video, new subscriber.. Just bought one of these today at Lowes, didn't get as good a price but was $849, compared to others such as harbor freight etc... this was the best deal I found for one with enough amperage to run my house if we have a power outage. One thing to add, since it has some fairly "dirty" power that it generates, having a small APC (battery backup and surge protector) connected to your electronics such as laptop, computer, stereo and TV equipment is a good idea. Most of th3ese APC's will also smooth out the electric as well as protect against surges. Phone chargers etc... I also hook up to my APC's in my house.
Have you had any major issues with it ? I just baught one and not even ran it for 30 minutes yet because we're under a winter storm warning and wanted to save on fuel
Thanks for the video brother.
Thanks for the video, very well done. I want to buy the very same one as well.
You're welcome sir. Thanks for watching!
Love the generator vids. A tip of the cap to you!
Thumbs up if you own an AR15 and a portable generator 😂👍
I bought 2 of these beasts, with the costco $100 off coupon. I 100% like them, but they seem a little clankity with the rack and mounts rattling and such.
Have you had any major issues with yours ? I baught one a couple days ago but only ran it for 30 miniuts because I was a little low on propane and wanted to save it for next power outage which could happen this week. We under a winter storm warning in West kentucky.
I just bought the same one for $499. at costco
Kevin Shea I’m looking at this right now and would like to know how you like it! I don’t know if I should get the Yamaha inverter or this one. Both of these are on sale, but the Yamaha is easier to move but much less power.
@@bluedog0012able I have only unboxed it and started it using both propane and gasoline. I was expecting to pay around $1000 for this dual fuel with this high wattage and could not be happier. Obviously, I cannot speak intelligently regarding its long term use. What I will say it looks and feels solid. All the reviews I read were fantastic. It really isn't that loud and how can you go wrong with $499. It comes with the oil, funnel, tools for spark plug and a cover. It looks awesome also. I am looking into getting an electrician over to advise me the best way to install. Interlock or transfer switch. As far as which generator to get..the Yamaha or the Firman I guess it depends on what you are going to use it for. If you are going to use it to back up some of your house in case of power loss there is no doubt the Firman. It literally has 4.5 times the output as the Yamaha. You can really only run one or two things in your house for 1600w running power. Firman is less expensive. The Yamaha inverter will be quieter and over the course more fuel efficient but not really much help in running your house appliances. With the Firman, I can run almost my entire house for less money than the Yamaha. You could probably use this Firman for a year or two and sell it for about what you paid for it. Good luck in whatever you do..I wouldn't wait too long. While I was at my local Costco I saw 3 people with them on their flatbeds.
My was $599.00
Joe And they’re saying they are Tri-fuel. Haven’t seen that before.
Everyone really needs to watch this video about generator safety ruclips.net/video/I1jT3ANENvI/видео.html
Seems like a very nice unit for a pretty good price. Even so, $700 is a big chunk to spend
I paid $599.99
Hey looks nice. How’s it working out? Does it have a low idle switch ? Does it stay low idle till it calls for power? Nice video
So far, so good on performance. This unit does not come with a low idle switch. Runs WOT all the time.
@@TheLowlyTraveller I have something to tell you about, remember not to run your generator indoors. I’m just trying to be helpful ruclips.net/video/I1jT3ANENvI/видео.html please watch video about generator safety. I just hope you stay safe. Especially if you have children don’t let them get poisoned by carbon monoxide. I’m just trying to be nice okay. Thank you. Hope you agree with this video I shared to you. Everyone really needs to see it. I’m not trying to force you.
@@tonisam962 I didn't run the generator in the house. I just assembled it there. I run it outside.
@@tonisam962 Here is a reminder about portable generator safety: This advice is just to make sure that everyone is aware of all the warnings and it’s just to remind people to be careful using portable generators. Everyone has to see this safety reminder for safety. Every year, hundreds of people die or get injured when using portable generators due to carbon monoxide poisoning and electrocution. Make sure you are using your generator carefully and keeping others safe as well. There is something very serious that everyone should always be aware of when using generators. Some people do run their generator indoors which is not safe and that increases the risk of carbon monoxide poisoning which can cause death of family and you. Some people run their generator in wet conditions which can electrocute them. Please remember that you should never run your generator indoors. Remember that carbon monoxide is an odorless and colorless gas that you cannot see or smell. Carbon monoxide is a silent killer. Keep that in mind. Make sure your generator is 15-20 feet away from your house and away from doors, windows, and vents. Never use your generator in your porch too. Having a carbon monoxide detector is very important against generator safety. Some people also allow children to go near the portable generator which could pose risks. We need to keep an eye on our children making sure that they are not near the portable generator so they won’t get electrocuted or burned by the generator which is dangerous. A locking enclosure also keeps kids safe. A generator shed might look like a tempting place to explore, or take cover during a game of hide and seek, but a generator is a dangerous piece of equipment that can cause injury. It says on the manual that we should also keep children away at all times from the portable generator to avoid injuries. Please do not allow a child or unqualified people to operate the portable generator. Just because some manuals missed what should be listed doesn’t mean it’s safe to do. Always follow the generator safety rules when using portable generators. Generators pose electrical risks. If you need to use your generator during wet weather, you need a generator tent to protect your generator from getting wet. Don’t let your generator get wet. Keep your generator dry and before using your generator, please make sure your hands and your generator is dry. Do not wear loose clothing when operating the generator. Everything that is said on the generator’s operating manual should not be ignored. Never smoke cigarettes near the generator. Please keep flammable things away from the generator. Never overload your generator too. Your generator can catch fire. Never ever try to plug a generator cord into a wall outlet to avoid back feeding. Back feeding your generator is dangerous. Always turn on your generator first before plugging in appliances and shut off the appliances before turning your generator off. Use a heavy duty cord for your generator and the cord should not be worn out. All the instructions should be followed carefully. Never refuel your generator while it’s running. It can cause fire if fuel spills while your generator is hot. You should turn off your generator and let it cool off before refueling it. Having a fire extinguisher next to the generator is also important. This is only a reminder for everyone’s safety of using generators. Make sure your generator is properly grounded. ruclips.net/video/I1jT3ANENvI/видео.html and here is a video more about keeping others safe when using generators and also about our family’s safety. Hope this helps. Thank you.
Condescending vibes!!!
