      You convinced me to buy this little wonder. I've owned a few and this one takes the cake. Very small and light for a 3500 watt generator. Same size as my 2000's. They can't run the ac but this little unit does it no problem

  • @maxum3300
    @maxum3300 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +11

    I have the 3300 version of this generator. I don't have a lot of hours on it yet but so far so good. I camp mostly where I have power but keep the generator in my truck just in case we lose power. Over the 4th of July a portion of the campground did lose power, not in the section I was in but another part so I lent my generator to an elderly couple that also had a 16 year old dog that could not take the heat. The man was so thankful that he offered to give me cash. I refused to take it. The felling of doing a good deed for another was worth more than any amount of money he could have offered me. So glad I had my generator with me.

    • @johnnysweekends
      @johnnysweekends  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I always take a small gen even if going local and being plugged in for just in case like that, or if you break down on the side of the road and need to get out of the heat for a bit the gen can run the Ac in in the trailer. Obviously using caution depending where you break down

    • @TOURMANBOB
      @TOURMANBOB 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      You are so right sir ! I own a security company up here in Ottawa and when the power goes out , I equip my guys with a generator in their trucks and they visit older customers of ours living alone and spend a few hours a day keeping their freezers cold. During the last dericho that hit us and power was out a full week, it saved thousands of dollars in food. It's called passing good karma along.....

    • @maxdeane1092
      @maxdeane1092 5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I don’t know anything about the big generator. During the storms over the last couple of days, I lost power for 12 hours. Started the generator up and was able to run all the important electrical appliances inside the house. I found the generator to be very reliable. I always run it out of fuel and then and then empty the carburettor by using the drain. The other thing I did from new was to use mobile one fully synthetic engine oil. I always start the generator every 6 to 8 weeks on load for an hour. Will be going out camping again shortly and it’s going to get a bit of work this summer. I can recommend the MXR3500.

    @user-lk5rp7ln4k 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    I've watched your reviews of this generator and am considering purchasing one. One question though...when it was running your trailers air conditioner, is your AC just a standard one, or have you installed a 'soft start' on it? thanks

    • @johnnysweekends
      @johnnysweekends  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I do have soft starts on both units now as I run a battery and inverter setup which will run my Ac unit as long as the sun is out or my batteries are topped off. It will help increase the life of the Ac units, the inverter and also a gas generator that is smaller like the MXR3500 and other gens of that size. If you plan to keep your trailer it’s a great idea and easy to install.

      So far people are getting into the low thousands. So depends on how it’s treated and more. If you run it around the 30-70% range then it’s not being worked to hard. But if you are always close to max you can wear them much quicker

    • @johnnysweekends
      @johnnysweekends  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      It’s a DF unit that runs the normal Yamaha clone MZ80 engine. It is rated at 1800 running watts on gas. It’s a little bigger than some units but says it’s super quiet so maybe the larger casing helps muffler excess engine noise. I don’t know the actual manufacturer of that unit so nothing to compare it to. And I have no experience with it.

    • @johnnysweekends
      @johnnysweekends  11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Odd…!!
      Here are a few things to try…
      Make sure unit is level
      Check oil level and make sure its full to bottom of threads on dipstick.
      Do not over fill fuel past red line in fill neck this can cause issues.
      If its extremely hot out and unit is in the sun it can and will over heat and shut down. Especially if at more altitude.
      What temps has it been. Unfortunately everything has a limit.
      If hot temps try to move to shaded area.
      Try these and see.
      Break in wont really do anything unless you went straight to max load and just held it there for ever.
      And also one tank of fuel at high loads will only last about 3-4 hours. At lower loads is will last much longer.

    Can anyone tell me if this line of generators have pistons running on aluminum bores or cast iron ones like more expensive generators. This makes a huge difference in the number of hours a unit can run before needing a major rebuild. I have one of these 3500 watt units but continue to wonder how long they will last....

    • @johnnysweekends
      @johnnysweekends  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I was kinda wondering this so I asked and will find out in a few days. Or I may have to take one apart. How many hours on yours..?

    • @TOURMANBOB
      @TOURMANBOB 4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Zero at the moment !! The guy I bought it from put 750 ml of oil in it and it only takes 450 ml, so I spent some time cleaning up the mess it left when I checked the oil level. This morning I added an hour meter to the generator to keep track of hours for maintenance purposes, and as I write this, I am going out to start the breakin procedure...
      After one hour change oil, two hours varying the load change it again, 5 hours change it to synthetic oil, and 20 hrs change it again...after that every 50 to 100 hours of use.
      I love maintaining all my power equipment and get really upset when I see people abuse their equipment then complain it's crap and doesn't work anymore.
      I was going to use a borescope to see if I could determine the metal in the bore but I couldn't really make out what it was. Bad news one has to be taken apart to find out, but if it's an aluminum bore, it won't last long (especially if it's abused). But with a cast iron sleeve it should last many thousands of hours all else being equal.

    • @johnnysweekends
      @johnnysweekends  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @TOURMANBOB Wow how did they get that much oil in there. Must have been tilted way back! And yes I agree people who abuse stuff and come back and say whatever product is junk. Unfortunately it’s OE many times but they wont admit they are at fault. I ask what were you doing or what loads and conditions. Come to find out it was running at max in a 100 degree temp for 4 hrs….🤷🏼‍♂️ Well most things dont last long at wide open and hot temps.
      I’ll see what I can find out on the sleeves. But yea these little gens love 75% and lower…

    And have trouble with it throwing over load light on the eco sw mode running the a/c when the compressor cut in
    But if i switch off the eco sw mode it seams OK ....have changed a few setting in my cerbo gx but still the same .....
    I have been told it could be dirty power from from the generator ....
    But that is only a comment so I took that with a grain of salt .......
    Hope someone else my have the same issue
    The a/c is not a soft start

    • @johnnysweekends
      @johnnysweekends  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Most times when running any ac unit you want to leave it off eco as the engine is not turning enough rpms for the surge in power. When at higher rpm it can handle the large surge current trying to be pulled from it. Also the outside temp, humidity and elevation will all play a factor.
      Try again with eco off, if you want to leave Eco on a soft start will be needed which is always a good idea as it will prolong the life of the gen and ac unit on those hotter days when the generator has to work harder.

      25 amps is 25 amps. And if the sine wave is clean then electronics will be fine. So your comment is a little unclear.
