I have one of these for home prep. The fact you can store LPG indefinitely means when I had to use it after 2 years set up outside in a waterproof box it just started up on the key and off you go.. Great machine!
I just got the same generator too. I have about 6 hours on mine. Make sure you change the oil a few times. I changed mine 3 times before it started to look like normal oil
Thanks for the review. Is this generator still performing for you? Would you buy it again? Have you had to deal with customer service at Genmax over any issues? Thanks-
I got it on ebay and there is no comaany name on it. I understand everyone's frustration from not finding a box in these exact dimensions. I'm trying to find one too.
Yes. If it's been sitting for a few months I'll use the pull starter but after that just use the start button. If you leave it sitting for months it's good to unplug the battery first👍
I really don't understand why people follow propane. I mean it's like the next coolest thing out there besides solar. Propane ain't cheap, and you ain't got to carry around no hundred gallon container or propane either. Your people are funny people boy it's like playing all the leader right cliff

Very true! The motor will last much longer on propane too! Gasoline tries to break down the engine oil where propane does not! 👍
I've had good luck with mine. Seems well built and very quiet.
Love this! Just ordered one today. Thank you for this review. It helped me male my decision.

I've changed it twice and yeah the shaving just keep coming 👍
Do you guys know the thread size of the dipstick? I want to add a magnetic dipstick when I get mine
I saw a review where it looked like gas leaked out while changing the oil. IS that true?
@@floppyebrokent8578 Most all generators use the same threads.....like Honda. etc
Looks great for what you need Jay!
Thanks 👍
Thanks Doug ! It will be perfect to use for making repairs at my farm at Bear Skin, Louisiana !
Excellent video. How about a video of your battery and solar trailer set up.
Next video will be the EG4 48v 100ah battery👍
Bro...where did you get that diamond plate box?...I can't find that dimension anywhere!

Where do you store extra fuel ? The box doesn’t look big enough to keep a gas can in.
Five gallon can in my trailer.
Do you run the generator inside that box? It seems like it would overheat.
Wats the warranty on that thing?
Looked all over for that box with no success. Please help me where to look
I found mine on ebay. Got it second hand from someone. I've looked all over it for a sticker with a brand name but there isn't one.

Why do you need to use that adapter on a 30Amp RV cord?
The gen comes with a twist lock outlet and I'm using a standard rv plug. The generator comes with the adapter incase you use a standard rv plug in.
Good to know w a class a RV
Where did you get that box? Thanks

does the genmax 3500 generator battery charge it self when running
Yes. If it's been sitting for a few months I'll use the pull starter but after that just use the start button. If you leave it sitting for months it's good to unplug the battery first👍
Does anyone know how to bypass CO detector that is flashing and won't let me start it.
Which box worked for that gen?
I know....wish he would respond...I can't find that size anywhere!
My generator measures 20” high

I can give plenty of reasons why propane can be better than gas.
smells less
2x 30lbs tanks in my rv… thats why
totally sounds cheap when running really tiny and rattely
