hey all,
new here. picked one of these inverters up today at sams club for $499usd.
i've got to say i'm happy so far, the plan is to get another and run the parallel kit.
i'll be using these in a espresso concession trailer. so, i'll need the combined power.
the unit started on the first easy pull, warmed up and took a few heavy loads.
commercial bunn brewer rated 1600 watt 13.3 amps...
on idle it's very quiet! i'll post more as it unfolds.

I'm always amazed with the first posts by someone new, that appear on these 'Plug-a thons' They all seems to hit where the discusions question something about the product. Like above, it will output 1600w/13.3 amps. I would think the 'espresso concession trailer' would need some real heavy duty power. Their are many first time posters we never hear from with follow ups. And true usefull info'How does this happen? As for this 'Official CPE 2000 Watt Generator' I still want to see some creditable post showing the use of an 1200w Microwave or any A/C. Or any real proof of 1600w running and 2000w peak. Either it will or it won't, preform for 30 minutes with a 1600w load.
Comment on the first video. Sounded to me like the engine might fly apart. I do hope these new Champion Inverters prove they are well engineered and manufactured and give many years of great service just like the Honda EU2000i that seems to be the 'Gold Standard' The question is, can/will the Chinese do this?
Lot's of questions remain. As per above. There must be something to the Kipor story. We are told the Kipor/Champion 1000i for Canada is just a rebadged Kipor. And now we see all the new Kipor units are the color Yellow and Black. Will more future Inverters with the Champion badge be produced in a Kipor Mfg plant?
