New Champion 2000 Generators

After lots of research (here and elsewhere) and thought and a few years into my RV'ing DW said I could get the generator I wanted for my 50th birthday today! So made my way to Cabela's and purchased 2 new champion 2000 generators with the parallel kit (got 2 of their last 3 in stock, and their last parallel kit), brought them home and played with them awhile setting them up, getting them hooked up, etc. Started raining before I got to hook them up to the TT, so will try that tomorrow afternoon or Sunday.

Really batted around the honda vs champion, but knew I wanted the inverter capability. They started right up very nicely.

Looking forward to taking my trailer to the PA state parks that don't have hookups!!!

    So am I been looking at them for a while, let us know.


    there's a thread in the Tech Issues forum, about the Champion 2000w inverter generators, that has been going on 2010 and has thousands of posts.

    no need to wait for someone's review, there are tons of them there.
    i'm surprised no one has mentioned it yet.

  • I bought mine back in 2011 and they have done me well so far. Got the first one (Yellow) at Sams club, and believe it or not a red one at Costco a few months later when I decided I needed two after all. Only issue I've had with them has been carburetor fouling when I let them sit to long without adding a stabilizer to the fuel. That's operator error though so I can't really complain about the little generators. They're quiet and so far have proven to be rugged and reliable for me. COngrats
  • I bought one several years ago and have been very happy with it. Light weight with remote start and quiet. Not big enough to run the AC but just right to recharge batteries, run micro wave and other light loads.
