Producing up to 18.3 amps at 120 volts and 15 amps under normal running conditions. The iGen2200 has enough power to run all your home essentials. And with a 1.2-gallon fuel tank and under normal conditions, this generator will run for 12 hours.
A 79cc 4-stroke Over-Head-Valve engine, which makes 3 horsepower, automatically controls its speed to fit the power needs. An Automatic Voltage Regulator ensures that the voltage distortion stays below 3%.
If you want to get more power, Westinghouse’s iGen range are parallel capable. So, if you have another iGen and the Westinghouse parallel cable, you can increase the power output. The front panel has two 120-volts outlets and two standard USB sockets.
At 46.3 pounds (21 Kg) a with a sturdy carry handle, this is portable enough for one person to move it around. The iGen2200 is incredibly quiet, at only 52 dB, about the same as a normal conversation at home.

Top Features
- Extremely quiet. This generator is easy on the ears, unlike some. While many generators surpass 70 dBA, the Westinghouse iGen2200 Portable Inverter Generator has a sound emission of only 52 dBA. Preserve a peaceful atmosphere, at home, or in nature! As you can imagine, generators that function quietly are highly sought-after.
- Fuel-efficient. The Westinghouse iGen2200 Portable Inverter Generator is capable of a seriously impressive 12 hours of runtime, on just a Westinghouse iGen2200 Portable Inverter Generator gallon tank. This makes the Westinghouse iGen2200 Portable Inverter Generator an option that is both cost-effective and practical.
- Inverter generator. Compared to your conventional generator, inverter generators are more fuel-efficient, quieter, and safer. For powering sensitive electronics, they are the lowest-risk.
- Ultra-Portable. Weighing only 46 pounds, the Westinghouse iGen2200 Portable Inverter Generator is ultra-portable. For your convenience, it even has a built-in handle. This makes the generator easy to lift and maneuver.
- Runs on gasoline. Compared to other fuels, gasoline is one of the most consistently affordable. You can also obtain it just about anywhere. This makes fueling-up simpler than ever!
- Economy Mode. Some generators run on full-throttle all of the time. If you don’t actually need the maximum power, this can be a waste of fuel. The Westinghouse iGen2200 Portable Inverter Generator comes with Economy Mode, which will reduce the power to no more than the necessary level. This will both extend the runtime, and save on fuel.

What Can You Use A Generator For?
First and foremost, the perfect backup in case of a power outage or emergency is a quality generator. If your power goes out, just set yours up. Watch as your generator returns light and warmth to your home, so you and yours can relax.
Along with this, portable generators are great for recreational use. You can run a coffee machine, recharge your camera or phone, play music, or even power the air conditioning in your RV… all with your very own personal generator!
What To Consider
When it comes to finding the best generator for you, there are a few key things you should consider. These include the fuel you would prefer, the runtime you require, and whether or not portability is an important feature for it to have.
Fuel
Generators can run on several different types of fuel. Each has its own unique cost, efficiency, availability, and so on. As it is the most affordable, and the most readily available, gasoline is the most popular fuel. Gas offers a reasonable runtime, you can buy it in just about any town, and it won’t break the bank.
Diesel is quite similar to gasoline, only it tends to be a bit more fuel-efficient, and to burn more quietly in comparison.
Finally, generators can run on natural gas or propane. These types of fuel burn more quietly, and with fewer fumes, though they also cost more.
Runtime
Runtime is an aspect that generators can vary wildly in. There are so many factors that play a role, after all. What sort of runtime are you looking for? A brief boot-up at home, or long-lasting power for camping or RV? Make sure that the generator of your choice is up to the task! For house backup or day trips, a few hours -say, around 4- should do the trick. If you intend to keep your generator in use overnight, you’ll need a bit longer (7-12 hours).
Portability
Portability is a convenient feature for any generator to have, making it easy to set up and move! If you’re traveling or camping, portability in a generator can be a lifesaver. You should not have to struggle to carry your generator.
Generators that are truly portable are lightweight and hassle-free. For your convenience, they should have handles and/or wheels as well.

2 Inverter
The Westinghouse iGen2200 Portable Inverter Generator is a state-of-the-art inverter generator. What does this mean? That the generator has not just a gas tank or battery, but an alternator and inverter as well.
These serve to refine the electrical current further so that you can power even the most sensitive devices, free of risk! This includes laptops, plasma/LCD TVs, tablets… even your cell.
