Champion Power Equipment 2200W Portable Inverter Generator - Propane/Petrol

I think this is an excellent item (all necessary items are supplied with it) but I haven't got around to using it. All I can say is that it appears to be a really qualitative item. I bought it in response to a threat to cut off my electricity (by a state sponsored entity). I need to have the ability to get by without mains electricity This is a crucial component in my system. The fact that it runs on propane is very important as I can't get petrol. Also propane is much cheaper than petrol.

Brilliant dual fuel generator. Quieter than I imagined it would be and very easy to start. Recommended by ChatGPT as an ideal , cost effective & quiet generator capable of safely charging up an Echoflow Delta 3 Plus at 1500w. With Ed Miliband as Secretary of State for Energy Security, every household should have one.

Expensive and ****; broke after 2 weeks, support technician no clue. I ran it on both propane and petrol, then it quickly broke... crap. If you've got no start; on the 2.2kW dual fuel (92001i-DF), check the "low-oil switch" (Yellow wire, series plug connector). Disconnect that plug, (Thereby disconnecting the low-oil switch) temporarily, to determine if the switch is keeping it from starting. This was disappointing, but got it going. The "low-oil" LED lights up as you pull the striking chord, which could be a giveaway. *(Update, 07/2026: [1.5yrs ownership, see video] STILL WORKS. The striking chord has rubbed through the plastic cowl, causing it not to retract properly; though it still pull-starts, and the selector switch fell off [Though now it's an "anti-tamper" feature] Reliable still, after constant use since I've owned it, despite the issues explained. Oil changes and simple maintenance carried out as per booklet)* Upgraded from 1 start to 3.

This is an excellent generator, which pairs well with my EcoFlow Delta 3 power pack as a backup to my family's wind / solar / lead-acid off-grid system. Instructions are optimally clear. We have only used it on LPG so far. It did take a few extra pulls with choke on to prime the system at first, but now it has settled reliably on the recommended three pulls with choke, then one pull with LPG "on". I would have given five stars, but it doesn't power our lead-acid charger that draws about 1.8KW, instead moving quickly into a chaotic regime and then triggering the electronic cut-off. In order to power that, I have to first charge my Delta 3 from the Champion Inverter Generator, then use the Delta 3 to power the lead-acid bank charger. Given that the Champion is rated at 2200 Watts, this is slightly disappointing. However, it does cope extremely well with the Delta 3's variably charging circuit, including at max 1.5 KW, which is the most important thing. So far it seems reasonably quiet and economical on LPG. We calculate that bottled LPG (47kg) and petrol are about the same economics at current prices (Highlands of Scotland). However, LPG is cleaner and a lot more user-friendly.

Great small generator running wery well on both fuels. Starting from second pull. Recommended

Great when ot worked. Ran on lpg and once on petrol. Now will not start.

Excellent

The generator arrived within 1 week, Very well packaged, Set up was approx 30 minutes and started with second pull. Runs really quite. I have not connected it to my motor-home yet but I don`t envisage any issues.
