OVE MY LITTLE POWERHOUSE

So far this generator has exceeded my expectations. I lvoe the handle and wheels as its easy to move around and use. I had it running at he campsite and it runs super quiet. did not disturb neighbors who were a few sites away. Runns efficinetly and was abel to power my heating all night on low idle. Accoridng to specs it says low idle increases run time by about 25%. SO far so good.

Used this to supply power for a live band - including amplifiers, lighting, mixers, and PA - for a 4-hour performance. Perfect. Placed the generator approx 30' away from the stage and there was nothing audible. The audience had no idea it was even there. Did not use a full tank of gas, either. My company provides equipment and engineers for live performances throughout the Greater Fort Wayne, IN area and this thing loads out on every gig. Absolutely recommended

Great Support

Upon arrival, we filled the generator with oil and gas. Then we attempted to start it with no results. We called GenMax and they stated to fill the oil to where you can see it at the threads. When we did that it ran perfectly.

purchased this generator recently. It was a little bigger than what I wanted. I needed a small generator to run a 5000 BTU window AC on a camper I use at hunt camp. I was looking at the smaller Genmax generator (1200) but saw this one at basically the same price. This last weekend I had the opportunity to put it through its paces helping a friend build a cabin on a remote property he has. This generator was able to run a compressor (to run a framing nailer) as well as a chop saw for cutting dimensional lumber for framing, and a circular saw for cutting zip board. We even had an extra outlet we used to charge power tool batteries. The generator would struggle just a little bit if the air compressor and the chop saw ran at the same time, but it would catch up quickly and push on through. We ran the generator continuously for 6 hours on the single tank of gas. While its primary purpose will be to run the AC unit, I am now confident that I will be able to also run lights and perhaps even some appliances at the hunt camp trailer. The generator was quiet enough to be able to have a conversation standing next to it without really raising your voice. In fact, it was quieter than either the air compressor or the chop saw when they were running. All in all, I am very happy with its performance over the weekend, and I'm sure it will be more than adequate for what it was originally purchased for.

What are the main types of generators available?

There are several types of generators, including portable, standby, inverter, and solar generators. Each type serves different purposes based on power needs and usage environments.

How do solar power systems compare to traditional generators?

Solar power systems offer clean, renewable energy with low maintenance and no fuel costs, making them more cost-effective over time than traditional generators. While generators provide power anytime with steady fuel, they produce emissions, require regular upkeep, and can be noisy. Solar is quieter, eco-friendly, and better for long-term savings, especially with battery storage for night or cloudy days.

What size generator do I need for my home?

The size of the generator you need depends on the appliances and systems you want to power. A small 5,000-7,500 watt generator can cover essentials like lights, refrigerator, and a few smaller devices, while a larger 10,000+ watt generator can power more, including heating/cooling systems. To find the right size, list your essential appliances and check their wattage, then choose a generator that meets or slightly exceeds this total.

Can solar panels work during a power outage?

Standard solar panels don’t work during a power outage unless paired with battery storage or a special inverter designed for backup power. Battery storage allows solar energy to continue powering essential appliances even when the grid is down.

How long does it take to install a solar power system?

Solar power system installation typically takes 1-3 days, depending on the system’s size and your roof’s complexity. The entire process, including permits and inspections, can take a few weeks to a few months.
