IMPAX Inverter Generator - Portable, Great for RV, Camping, Outdoors, Silent (IM1900SIG)

Started it up to make sure it was working. Nice and easy to start and stop. Quite low noise. Bought as insurance against power outages. Good looking bit of kit

Added the oil & fuel (E5 to be on the safe side as no info on new petrol) and it started on first pull. Didn't need priming at all. Don't know why they even use the term 'silent', it's not but I didn't expect it to be. I would say the noise level is acceptable and expected for a generator but SILENT it is not. It runs smoothly and cleanly which is good enough. There are no operating instructions at all and the only online instructions I could find were for a different model. Luckily it was similar and explained most switches etc. Red switch = on/off Black switch = economy mode but only with NO load. The large round black Knob is the fuel shutoff for when not in use. I hooked it up to my converted container office and it worked as well as could be expected. My mini oven was too much for it when set to full power fan oven but again expected. Just check appliance wattage and keep within the generators rated capacity. It's only on standby in case Solar can't cope occasionally so too soon to say how well it will last. Happy so far.

Very noisy. power is not as stated. Just about runs small 400watt drill. Very poor performance !!!

All as described great for power tools handles my circular saw well

It's by no means "silent" but it is very quiet. I bought this to run equipment from the back of my van and it works perfectly. Filling it with oil can be tricky but it does come with a funnel to make the job easier. It's quite weighty so wouldn't want to carry it too far. Starts first pull of the cord, and does the job perfectly.

Advert says 59 dbs label on machine states 98 why !!!!!!????? I would have thought that at the price they could have at least supplied the oil to start it up Otherwise looks like a good bit of kit

Great generator, replaced my old Autojack with this Impax. I thought my old one was quiet. This is even quieter. Really easy to start & even has a fuel gauge that my last one was lacking. It is quite heavy & appears well made. Really happy with it so far.

Very quiet generator starts first pull of the cord has been handling a load of 1000w with ease. Putting in Aspen ethanol free fuel to avoid stale fuel issues that can plague small carburettors. Remember to get some 10-40W oil as it ships empty and none included.
