Description

Remember when you had clean and quiet portable power? The WEN 2,000 Watt Inverter Generator produces clean energy free of voltage spikes and drops without making all of the noise of a regular generator. Generate 2000 surge watts and 1600 rated watts of power. Our 79.7 cc 4-stroke OHV engine operates at an extremely quiet 51 decibels at quarter load, quieter than a window air conditioner or the average conversation. This limits its invasiveness while hunting, camping, tailgating and restoring back-up power. Designed to mirror a pure sine wave, this generator limits total harmonic distortion to under 0.3 percent at no load and under 1.2 percent at full load, making it safe enough to run laptops, cellphones, monitors, tablets and other vulnerable electronics. The lightweight design makes for easy portability while the ultra-efficient one-gallon tank provides over 6 hours of half-load run time. 56200i This fully-packed panel comes equipped with two three-prong 120V receptacles, one 12V DC receptacle and one 5V USB port. Maximize fuel economy by engaging the WEN 2000 Watt Inverter Generator's Eco-Mode Throttle. This feature allows the generator's motor to automatically adjust its fuel consumption as items are plugged and unplugged from the panel, preventing the usage of unnecessary gasoline. Need more energy? Easily link up two generators using a WEN 56421 Parallel Connection Kit (sold separately) in order to share wattage amongst multiple units. Low-oil and low-fuel automatic shutdown with indication lights along with overload protection safeguard both your generator and your electronics from damage. And because this is a WEN Product, your inverter generator comes backed by a 2-year warranty, a nationwide network of skilled service technicians and a friendly customer helpline. Remember when your generator powered your electronics safely and quietly? Remember WEN.

  • Quality with a very good price
Style: 2000 Watts (w/ 1600 Running) Pattern Name: Generator
All the good things that you can read about small inverter generators apply to this model. I have 3 of them. They never have let me down. On one of them, I used a 3rd party kit to add additional fuel options and can run it on propane, natural gas, or gasoline. I have the parallel kit as well. I like the fuel gauge on top. Quiet. Easy to start. Delivers the power. I have other generators as well. A larger Westinghouse and a couple 2200 watt Hondas. I did research but was mostly blind in choosing this brand as a low price backup to add to my premium priced models. The reason was that it met all my functional criteria AND parts are available on line at the WEN web site. I'm an engineer. I understand that the price point is achieved partly by using a 79cc engine instead of a larger engine that wouldn't be run as hard. But if you do your part in basic maintenance, I believe that this generator is gonna give you the best that a 79cc engine can deliver. Also, regarding price point and reliability, my thinking goes like this: You need a generator during a power outage, an emergency. You can get two of these for less than the price of the premium brands. Then if - and I do say IF - the Wen fails during the emergency, you have the spare. I REALLY like that. Good job Wen! ... show more

  • Proven performance
Style: 2000 Watts (w/ 1600 Running) Pattern Name: Generator
Recently purchased two units for parallel purposes. After unboxing first unit, opened gas cap, noticed a strong gasoline smell. Thought the unit may be run tested or something similar, still seemed rather odd that residual gasoline would be left in a unit prior to shipment... Took off side panel to look at oil, unit did have some residual oil left, however; this was very clear oil, so I figured it may be a non-issue. Figured they may be run tested at the factory. Second unit had no such gasoline smell and had nearly no residual oil leaving me to doubt my previous assumptions. While I haven't run tested either at this time, I do have a bit of apprehension about receiving a unit with residual gasoline, barring any safety/shipping concerns, the chance of problems down the line related to gasoline evaporation/deposition is troublesome (Carb failure due to residual gas is major source of failure for all carborated generators). Given that these units do not have hour counters, I am unable to tell if the unit I received was returned, the only saving grace being the aforementioned very clear residual oil Upon running the units I will update my review based on performance. Initial Performance update: 5/28/2016 Oil - 10w30 Pennzoil Platinum Synthetic, 1 quart = about 3 generator fills so cost is negligible Aftermarket Yamaha magnetic dipstick installed http://www.amazon.com/dp/B017CXO7AQ?psc=1 Wen parallel kit http://www.amazon.com/WEN-56421-Parallel-Connection-Generators/dp/B0144O1808?psc=1 L5-30P to 2 5-20R Y cable (wanted for full 20 amp down 25 foot 12 gauge extension cord) First unit started was the one with the gas smell, followed instructions, started up second pull. Followed same instructions for second unit, started right up, though there was a significantly different burning smell with the second unit for awhile after start up. Seemed to dissipate (I'm guessing that is new generator smell burning off assorted residual chemicals in motor, which supports the first unit having being ran at some point prior in its existence). Should note that start up pull is very, very light. Both units stabilized, checked outlets with a box fan, no problems. ECO mode is extremely quiet, but even at full speed, it isn't very loud. Shut em' down, installed the parallel kit (took it apart before hand, simple parallel junction box with no internal breakers). Should note that once the engine has been started and gas has been circulated, don't use the choke per instructions, good way to flood the engine. Started first generator, let it stabilize, started second generator, let it stabilize, checked parallel kit with a box fan, had juice. Ran extension cord to room I would power in a an outage, hooked up a 15,000 BTU 120 volt AC (LG Brand). AC started, compressor kicked on, generators powered through. Standing by the generator, you could hear them buck a bit when the AC started, but it responded quickly. Ran a few other odds and ends without issue which would suffice in an extended power outage. Didn't play around with ECO boost and the AC connected, worked great with power tools though. After running AC for about 2 hours (88 F outside), I shut the units down and looked at the magnetic dip stick. Dark metal fines on the dipstick. I believe this is the black dirt that most folks were seeing in the first oil changes. Cleaned the dipstick, put back in, ran for an hour, cleaned dipstick, repeat. The oil itself was immaculate, dark material was all magnetic. Ran fuel out of generator (started with half tank). Will likely change oil after next run assuming dipstick doesn't show clear. Not worried about this issue, this is a known problem for high end Yamaha's as well (hence the aftermarket magnetic dipstick). Overall I am impressed with the generators (assuming initial burning smell on one unit and residual gasoline in the unit's tank aren't red flags, 2 stars off for that for the time being). Lot of clean power and flexibility for the Money. Power outage performance update: 6-13-2016 Lighting struck near home during electrical storm, lost power. Ran generators in parallel, in ECO mode with the following: 15000 btu window unit, Full size refrigerator, 60 watt lamp, Computer speakers, 2 phone chargers and a tablet. Made a parallel extended run system that can use any generic 5 gallon fuel jug. They did shutter a bit when the AC compressor kicked on, but powered through. I give em' 5 stars now. ... show more

  • Very happy, you want the new orange case units with oil change door!
Style: 2000 Watts (w/ 1600 Running) Pattern Name: Generator
I got 2 of these 2000 watt (new style, orange case with the oil fill door on the side) with the parallel kit and covers. So far so good, they both started right up, nice and quiet, on par with the Honda 2000. I first saw this unit in use at an outdoor video screening, it was powering the AV system. The guy also had a Honda 2000 there. I asked him why he didn't have two Honda's, and he replied, I just grab what is at the shop when I leave for an event, and they happened to have the Honda and the Wen. He said he preferred the Wen over the Honda, as the Wen seemed a bit quieter. The noise from this Wen is very muted, more of a dull drone, without any rattly metallic sounds. Doesn't grate on your nerves :) I ran both of them for over an hour as a first test, put a 1550 watt load on each one and they both handled it with no problems. Then put them in parallel mode with the same 1550 watt load, and with ECO on, neither one barely rev'd up at all. Assuming they hold up long term, I am very happy. I confirmed that if you rotate the on/off to the position just before "off" it does shut down the fuel to the carbs, and you can run the carb out of fuel for shorter term storage. The covers are nice and thick with elastic cord at the bottom, looks like they will last a long time. I got the magnetic dip stick replacements to collect any metal particles from engine break in, not sure if this is really necessary, but gives me a sense of protection. The parallel kit, is simply a case to hold the 30 Amp connector with two sets of wires to connect to the two generators. You can use the built in 15 Amp connectors on the generators at the same time the parallel kit is in use, just keep the total load within specs. Next I'll try running my 5th wheel stuff on them, I suspect one generator will have trouble running the microwave, so that is why I got two. That and my battery charger tends to draw around 2000 watts by itself (110 Amp charge rate to the battery banks), so this would also overload just one. It's much easier to load these at 50 lbs a piece into my truck bed, then a single more capable generator at 100+ lbs. Update 9/6/17: I connected up to my 5th wheel and got about the results I was expecting. A single generator would overload after 10 seconds trying to run the microwave, this was a 1650 watt load, just above the sustained rating. Looks like 1600 really is the upper limit for useful work. It had no problem running my small AC unit, this is a 10K BTU, with a 1050 watt load. It did have trouble starting it in ECO mode, but it managed. with ECO off, no issues. Battery charger would overload it almost immediately (as expected, this was a 2000 watt load). Next ran them both in parallel mode, microwave no problem, battery charger no problem, microwave with AC at the same time, no problem. All this was with ECO on. I didn't try the main 15K BTU AC unit, but don't expect any trouble, as I have run this on another 3000 watt generator previously with no issues, and these two together are 3200 watts. I did notice that for a given load between 1000 and 1500 watts, both generators together produced less noise then a single one doing the same work. This was also as expected. If you can afford two, they are quieter, easier to load into a truck, have twice the fuel tank, and more capable than a single one. ... show more
