    That outlet isn't European, it's 120 VAC 30A twistlock. At 2300 watts it can't put out 30A, but a lot of people like the twistlock even at lower current because you can't accidently kick the plug out. Another feature of cheap generators that you should be aware of is the inverter output, you'll see two types, pure sine wave and modified sine wave. In basic terms pure sine wave looks like the power coming from the grid, and is typically more expensive. Modified sine wave uses digital technology to emulate AC power. Some equipment doesn't like the modified AC and could experience damage when it's used heavily. It would be interesting to hear a follow up after you have a few miles on that thing. Good luck.

      Awesomeness! I’m absolutely a dummy when it comes to electricity and stuff like that so I just don’t mess with it! I watched a friends video @ThatHobby and realized what it was and I was like 🤦🏻‍♂️. LoL. Thanks for the info!

      I've been running this generator for years with no issues. It's capable of running a 13000btu rv unit with no hiccups.. less than 3 pulls, and she still starts..

      True, it won't put out 30 amps but it will still feed your RV successfully. You won't be able to run both air conditioners or one A/C and microwave together but it'll run one A/C plus your fridge and lights.

      I just gave this one a quick start ( 1 pull ) and let it run for about 15 min. Love it!

    I have this generator and getting ready to do my first oil change. Do you know what the oil type it takes is? What is the oil capacity? And does it have an oil filter? If so what oil filter does it take?

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman
      @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hey bud! So I used SAE 10w/30. You should just fill up until it comes even with the full spout. Also I don’t believe it has an actual filter. Hope that helps! Thanks for watching!!

    Do you know how to access the spark plug to remove it?

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman
      @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Unfortunately i do not but I would say you have to start with taking off the side panels and go from there. Wish I could help more! Mine starts first pull every time!

    I'm betting at 1900 watts full output that little 80cc engine is going to sound like a weed wacker at 5,000 rpm.

      We had a 100 cup coffee urn plugged in and it was perfect for an event we had. It was nice and quiet in the background.

    How much oil did you put in ?

    • @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman
      @TheCrawlspaceCraftsman  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You fill right up to top with out overflowing. Make sure it’s on a level surface.

    • @Giatheslutt
      @Giatheslutt 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The whole quart
