Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator produces 2, 200 peak watts and 1, 800 running watts, making it perfect as an emergency backup for home use or for recreational use.
The iGen2200 can simultaneously power most refrigerators and large appliances as well as any home necessities you may need while traveling. Powered by a 4-Stroke OHV Westinghouse engine, the iGen2200 is engineered to automatically adjust its engine speed to produce only the amount of power needed for enhanced fuel efficiency. It’s lightweight and convenient, weighing 46 lbs.
With a built-in carrying handle for easy portability. The iGen2200 has an ultra-low tone for community-friendly use, operating as low as 52 dBA which is quieter than the average conversation. Unlike traditional generators, the Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator safely power sensitive electronics like plasma/LCD televisions, laptops, tablets, and mobile devices by producing clean, stable power at less than 3% THD.
If you need more power, the Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator is parallel capable and can be paired with another Westinghouse Inverter Generator using the Westinghouse WHPC Parallel Cord (sold separately). The iGen2200 has built-in safety features including low oil shutdown and overload protection while backed by 3-year limited service, labor, and parts coverage with lifetime technical support.

To be totally honest I have only done a test run-through of this beautiful powerful Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator. I have been in the same place many people get into who want power during a brown or blackout. The cool and great help devices that allow for you to recharge your phone and power small items in clever ways: well I have several.
But unless you have experience with gasoline generators at work or for emergency situations; it’s difficult to make the move to buy a power source for emergencies that will actually allow you and your family to stay in the home and just do the simple math (or if you hate math, just do some consolidation). The issue for my wife was the idea of a generator filled with gas and blowing smoke while being very loud.
I was not really aware of this type and style of gas generator that is made to compete with the construction site monster generator. But the gas tank is around one gallon. The size is about the same as a large toolbox. The amount of power is worth learning (watts volts amps and the amount needed for items you need to run).
Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator will allow me to focus on my man cave and control center with A/C and the Internet box as well as a couple of power recliners and a lot of technology like computers, tablets, and phones. Plus by using a long HD power cord I can also keep the refrigerator and lights and washer dryer working.
The only difference between this home generator of this parameter vs. a much larger and powerful professional one with gallons of gas and super heavy serious generator is just using the two 110 or 220 plugs and a couple of really long and well-made HD extension cords that can be connected to a device while using and then disconnected and used somewhere else.
Like the washer and dryer. Different from the refrigerator that needs a constant power flow; the washer dryer just needs power while in use. Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator also came with a backup gas container. So with a gallon in the generator and another gallon in the safe extra container; you have at least 24 hours of full-time running.
And the safety factor is obvious and built-in with this super well-made generator for urban (neighborhoods) that are made so much better with quiet operation and a smaller size that doesn’t need a set of wheels. Plus the excellent amount of total watts and the ability to then provide the needed voltage that critical items in a normal home needs in order to know that you can stay home and deal with power outages in most cases.
If you want to add a second generator and link it together easily to the other... then you are in awesome shape. I am actually waiting for the first blackout of the summer in order to confirm my test run. Finally, the name Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator has a lot of strength in this arena. Plus the easily noticeable difference in overall visual and practical ability. I needed a light solution for short trips, for inflating the toys when I'm boating on a lake, and for general backup purposes and this one fits just fine!
I also had a minor claim with my iGen 4500 and I must say Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator went above and beyond to the best of my satisfaction! I grew up in South Louisiana, and I’m no stranger to hurricanes and generators. We just nailed by Hurricane Sally and lost strength for 8 days. This bad boy cranked my fridge/freezer, propane-powered water heater, and all my electronics running on one gallon of gas every day, which was a good thing because the roads were impassable for the first three days.
As a musician, I hate the sound of generators. Fortunately, this generator is probably half the volume of other products, particularly if you put it in efficiency mode. I’m buying the baby 1200 version before the next hurricane season just for backup. This Westinghouse igen2200 – Super-quiet Portable Generator is now part of my family, and I can’t wait to get it tattooed on my forearm. Real talk. Buy one. After filling up the oil reservoir with the oil that was included with the generator, and filling up the gas reservoir about halfway, the unit fired up on the 1st pull.

Product update:
If it reads that it will handle 2000W or 2200W, it may just be a miss print and that number is for the surge load to start something. The lower Watt number is what is available for near continuous use. The closer you have a continuous electrical load close to the maximum rated load 1800W the more likely the breaker will trip due to overload(s). Many variables involved include air temperature/ventilation, heat dissipation, the breaker is not likely to hold 18A's ( 2160W.) indefinitely. 1800W divided by 120 volts= 15 amps, & not an exact number. My opinion is not exact information.
