Nice review. When you talked about using the grounding plug I could tell that you knew what you were doing. Now I'm interested in this unit.

Great test, thank you. I am shocked this was on sale for $999. What a great deal on a great inverter generator. For our needs the iPower 3800 does almost everything as long as you do not try to do it all at once, lol. It's a balancing act between managing your fuel consumption in an emergency situation when fuel is scarce and the appliances you want to run. If this was available for the $999 when I bought the iPower 3800 for $550 I may have stepped up and selected it instead. No regrets. Our iPower 3800 was great after IAN. Keep up the great work.

Great Video!
Got the Genmax 9000 last Year. Might get this one for additional power to Outbuildings on the farm.
Probably not needed though, with most Appliances in the house running propane, and having Wood as a Primary heating source.

Very nice generator for the money. Thanks for showing us the details on the floating neutral and how you bonded it.

[michaelsmolenski]

Awesome Generator! Definitely on my list!

[tregyuop]

I would like to find out if you have reviewed the Using a-ipower gxs7100ird 7100w dual fuel inverter for home use. I watched your video using this generator on a motorhome. Great video. Hoping you will do one on hooking up to a homes electrical system. Will keep watching your video. Very informant on all the brands you review. Keep up the great work.

Just purchased this from Costco to replace my old Coleman Powermate. I hope it is reliable and lasts as long as my Coleman did.

Hi Gavin. Received my 7100 from Costco $999+tax. Thanks for another great video. I spoke to a Manager from AiVolt/Power. They are coming out with the Inverter7600 in 2023, sounds good. Can you respond to me on a 30amp Surge Protector from Generator to Power Input Plug, 4 prong twist lock please.
You are the Teacher !
All the best,
Mike ienuso

Great videos, Gavin. Just received this generator a couple weeks ago and just finished up the break-in
Process What oil do you recommend with this generator and in the manual it says to screw down the oil cap to check the oil or should I just set it on top and check it that way. And also, will you be doing a home test with this generator with the interlock on the breaker panel. Recently new subscriber. Love your videos. Thank you.

[rmnoonan]

They've got the GXS7600IRT due to release soon. Any insight into that model?

[sylvo]

Sylvo in Canada I’m looking for a 7000 plus generator waiting on the load testing to what the Genmax will do thank you for your great work I always enjoy it

[tregyuop]

Will you be connecting this to house electrical power to run appliances? Great videos. Keep up the great work.

[wolfmanjack]

Love this unit but can't find it anywhere. Costco no longer has it on their website.

[sppilot]

$999 is a deal for this generator. In Canada, the 8000 retails for $2700 after tax.

[Mrcram]

I like how this generator comes with a floating neutral. Are their any other inverters with a floating neutral that I might consider since I'm plugging directly into the house via an interlock kit and 30 amp power inlet plug in on house.

[davincrook]

Thank you for performing this test. Why not plug in your load bank of lights or something similar?

[rmnoonan]

I’m a little unclear, if you use the 120/240v 14-30 outlet to backfeed a panel, what’s the difference between setting it at 120 vs 240? Does one leg disable if set to 120

[apjack]

Thanks Gav, I read the reviews at Costco. Some people have problems with damaged shipping And others with getting hold of the company for warranty questions and the such. Any opinion? Thanks again from Wisconsin.

[laramie_]

Thanks for sharing! Gavin, where can I purchase that Cantex test box you’re using, or can you recommend a similar product? Thank you.

[crowriverguitarandsound]

I'd love to see the power on a scope under load. How clean of power is this producing?
