Product Overview
Remember when you were the king of the tailgate. Whether you need power during an outage or at the big game, the WEN 1000-Watt Portable Generator has you covered. The lightweight and compact design combines with the convenient carrying handle for accessible electricity on the campground, in the parking lot, or even as emergency backup. With 1000 surge watts and 900 running watts, you'll be able to power your stereo, television, lights, computer, slow cooker or whatever else you need to get the party started. The 63 cc EPA III and CARB-compliant 2-stroke engine includes an internal air-cooling system to help regulate the generators temperature. The 1 Gal. tank provides up to 5-hours of half-load runtime while spark arrestor permits usage while camping in national parks and forests. Our panel includes a AC 120-Volt 7 Amp 3-prong wall outlet (standard household 5-20R) and 1 circuit breaker in case of overload. This unit also runs off a 50 to 1 mix of gas and oil, meaning no more oil changes. And, because its a WEN product, your 1000-Watt Generator comes backed by a 2-year warranty, a nationwide network of skilled service technicians, and a friendly customer help line, all to make sure you remember WEN.
