Ideal for camping, boating, tailgating, and more, the IN800I weighs only 27 pounds and is easy to carry anywhere you may need up to 800 watts of power.

Compact Design Packs Plenty of Power
The IN800I weighs only 27 pounds, so you can have power just about any time--camping, hunting, tailgating, boating, and more. Its durable, one-piece construction with built-in handle makes the IN800I much more portable than full-size generators. And even though the IN800I measures just 17.6 x 9.8 x 14.8 inches (LxWxH), its four-stroke, 38-cc engine with easy-pull recoil is capable of producing 800 maximum watts or 750 continuous watts--plenty of power to operate a lamp, blender, CD player, fan, computer, power drill, 27-inch TV, or microwave.

The IN800I's innovative smart throttle technology efficiently uses fuel by automatically regulating engine output based on power demand, so the IN800I uses less gas when power demand is low. This means the IN800I can run a 50-percent load for up to 3-1/2 hours or a 100-percent load for up to two hours.

Alternator Technology Safely Delivers Electricity to Your High-Tech Appliances
One of the most innovative features of the IN800I is its ETQ Clean Sine Alternator Technology that ensures low total harmonic distortion (THD). THD is a measure of the quality of the electricity produced by a generator, and THD above six percent can damage electronics and components over time. With THD of less than three percent, the IN8000I Portable Generator ensures high-quality, safe delivery of electricity from the generator to your high-tech gadgets.

With low THD, this generator is computer-friendly, meaning it's completely safe to use with laptops, printers, desktop computers, and more. The IN800I will give you peace of mind knowing that your computer hardware is completely safe from power surges and bad-quality electricity. This generator also features a 120-volt dual outlet with circuit-breaker protection to guard your high-tech electronics from power surges.

Smart Features for Comfortable, Easy Operation
Nobody likes a noisy generator when camping, so the IN800I's quiet 60-decibel noise level will be loved by everyone at your campsite. The muffler keeps noise levels down and reduces engine vibration.

And for convenience, the on-board controls let you know if the oil is low, the power is low, or the power is out.The IN800I is backed by a one-year manufacturer's warranty.

1.0 out of 5 stars Can't get 500 watts out of this unit, May 14, 2009
This review is from: ETQ IN800I 800 Watt 4-Cycle OHV Gas-Powered Portable Digital Inverter Generator (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I bought this generator to power a 25 amp battery charger to keep aboard my boat. The battery charger is rated at 490 watts or about 4 amps at 120V. It trips the circuit breaker as soon as I plug it in everytime. I wanted a refund, but Amazon would not help me and said I had to go to manufacturer. ETQ said they do not give refunds and that I had to go to Amazon. After several calls back and forth to each, ETQ is swapping it out for another one. In conclusion I am stuck with all the extra shipping costs and a generator that won't power what I need. Bad experience from both Amazon and ETQ....I will look else where for another product.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good little generator for the money, December 15, 2008
By

This review is from: ETQ IN800I 800 Watt 4-Cycle OHV Gas-Powered Portable Digital Inverter Generator (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
If your power needs are minimal, this unit may fit the bill. If you need to power something with a motor, you'll probably want to keep looking, as at only 800 Watts peak, starting anything but the smallest motor driven tool will likely trip the overload circuit.

It's louder than the more expensive "super-quiet" models, but not by much, and it does have some annoying design elements. The oil reservoir is a pain to get to, both for checking level and filling, and it's difficult to tell when the tank is getting near full when re-fueling, making it very easy to over-fill.

Also, in the manual I received, the NGK CR5HSB spark plug number given as a replacement is not correct -- it should be an NGK CR5HSA. The CR5HSB has a solid terminal end, and this unit's plug connector only works with a threaded terminal end, which the CR5HSA has. And the odds are you may need a replacement plug soon, as my unit came supplied with a Torch A7RTC, which carbon fouled after only a couple of hours use. So far, the NGK replacement has been working great, and it should be readily available at any motorcycle shop.

But overall, this little generator has met my needs, making it a good value.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works great if you can get it to work, October 7, 2008

This review is from: ETQ IN800I 800 Watt 4-Cycle OHV Gas-Powered Portable Digital Inverter Generator (CARB Compliant) (Lawn & Patio)
I am a photographer who bought this generator to power a couple of computers and maybe a printer. It works great for that, but you have to trick it into working. Meaning you have to be very specific in the way that you plug things into it or else the overload light comes on. It seems to be very sensitive to which extension cord you use, 15ft seems to be the limit. Also, if you use a power strip don't even think about using the switch on it as it will trip the overload every time. The overload situation wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have to stop the generator each time to reset it.

After about 20 restarts I figured out you pretty much have to go in order from largest load (My 17" DELL XPS) to the lightest load which was a cheapo Lexmark printer. Any variation caused issues. On the plus side you do feel like you have accomplished something when you get everything up and running. My peak load was 4.7AMPS and it handled it fine, this included a 17" Dell XPS (often running at full load processing pictures), a toshiba 15" Laptop an LG 19" monitor, netgear wireless N router and a cheapo lexmark inkjet.

I have used this generator for 1 event and I am thinking real hard about returning it, there are just too many bugs with it. I wasn't expecting the world with this generator, I was expecting something that would be for the most part hassle free with my small electrical load. What I got was something that is great when it works but frustrating to no end when it doest.

*Update MAR 2009*

I have replaced this generator with a Yamaha 2400IS, the Yamaha is simply amazing. Although it is substantially more expensive at $1200 I must say the price was worth it. The Yamaha performs flawlessly with none of the quirks of this unit. Tests show that the Yamaha puts out a perfect sine wave with no signs of broadband noise.

While the IN800I still runs great I was simply fed up with all of the quirks, it is also quite a bit louder at idle than the Yamaha is under full load.
