Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Compact in design, the Generac iX2000 gas-powered portable inverter generator (model 5793) is designed for life on the road. Its durable, lightweight design with built-in handle offers portable power for camping, tailgating, and recreational use. The iX2000 features inverter technology that reduces the size, weight, and noise of the generator and allows for the engine to run at varying speeds, significantly reducing the noise and fuel consumption levels. And its special electronic microprocessor can also provide safe, stable power for sensitive electronic devices such as computers.
2,000 watts of clean power to safely power sensitive electronics (see larger image).
The iX2000 provides a reliable 2,000-watt power supply wherever you need it and a maximum power output of 2,200 watts, and yet it's 40 percent lighter than a standard generator of equal wattage output. It features Generac's FlexPower technology, which provides two modes of operation: High Mode for large loads or battery charging, and an Eco Mode to save fuel and reduce noise.
Note for California residents: This model is not CARB-compliant. Units sold to California must be CARB-compliant.
Ideal for recreational use (see larger image).
To determine your requirements for a portable generator, see this wattage chart sample.
The case is fully enclosed for quiet operation--making it campground friendly--and its integrated handle makes it easy to move from car to camp site. It's equipped with a 4-stroke, 126-cc OHV (overhead valve) engine, which features a low-oil shutdown system to prevent engine damage and keep the generator in good shape for long-term use.
This generator's 1-gallon resin tank will give you up to 4.7 hours of operation at a 50-percent load. Other features include splash lubrication, 12-volt battery charging capability, and electronic overload protection. It's backed by a 2-year residential warranty, and a 6-month warranty when used for commercial purposes.
How Inverter Technology Works
Inverter generators utilize a different type of alternator than standard generators to generate AC power. The raw power produced is converted from DC to AC power by a computer-controlled inverter module. The engine speed varies depending on the electrical demand, which significantly reduces noise and fuel consumption compared to a standard portable generator. The end result is a portable generator with reduced weight and size, and power that is ultra-clean and capable of safely powering sensitive electronics.

If you read the other reviews, you will notice that there is definitely an issue with the choke lever. After I received this generator, there was also an issue with the choke lever being broken off right out of the box. This is a nice little generator and I personally think Generac is a good brand. I have had no negative issues with the company or it's products in the past but this is certainly a KNOWN issue by now. Generac and Amazon obviously know about this choke lever problem. I think whoever buys this product on Amazon should be fairly warned before they purchase it. It can be fixed by contacting Generac or going through a local authorized dealer to repair it but this is an inconvenience and can take a substantial amount of time. If you are buying this product with plans of using it right away, I wouldn't count on it. I also think it is wrong to keep selling an item that has been proven to be defective as a brand new item. I haven't had my generator fixed yet, it is currently sitting at a local repair shop.

Amazon Verified Purchase
We purchased two ix 2000 generators. The first one the choke was broken and lying in the box. Also the generator comes with a quart of oil. The oil container was opened and empty. The generator started and sounded awful. It ran for about 30 mins and never ran again. We got a replacement one through amazon the second one came in the box covered in oil. The quart of oil was full and unopened. I don't understand where the oil came from but it was all over and inside the generator. And this generator never ran. I would not recommend this generator all the reviews I have read have been bad. I have heard the generator comes from China then Generac puts their name on it. They do not actually make or back-up their product. Amazon backs up their product they sell and I would use amazon again. I would recommend spending a little extra and get a Honda generator they run forever and are very quite.

Generac ix2000 I bought this product mid October. It took a few weeks to get to me. When I got it the Choke lever was broken off and not even in the package. Generac sent me a new one after about another month of waiting with a return label for the broken one to be returned . The choke lever was on this one but looked like it was made from some very cheap plastic. I set it up and was very careful in moving the lever since the first one was broken off. Once I moved it it came apart and broke in the exact same spot as the other one had come to me broken. So a month and a half later I still have no generator and no $600. From the short time it was running I could tell it was louder than I would think it would be. About lawn mower loud. Very dissapointed in the product! I wish I bought it locally so I could return it and get my money back.
(Edit:After contacting Generac personally they were very professional and helpful. They had someone local that I was able to take the unit to to get repaired. The local dealer was quick in repairing the product under warranty.)

Nice Generator, only one negative
The output is very stable. My primary need for a generator was operation of sensitive amateur radio equipment in the field. All tests have shows that has been met. Read more

DO NOT BUY A GENERAC!!!
Do not buy a Generac or a Honeywell. Both are made in China. Honeywell generators used to be a seperate company, then Generac bought them, so either is junk. Read more
