Power & Run Time

The A-iPower SC2000i

A-iPower SC2000i is equipped with a 79 cc Yamaha OHV 4-stroke engine, running on gasoline and providing 120V, boasting a running wattage of 1,600W alongside a starting wattage of 2,000W. Furthermore, its parallel capability (parallel kit included) allows for doubling of power output when connected to another similar or compatible unit, ensuring expanded energy capacity and reliability for various applications.

Operating at a noise rating of 58 dBA (less noisy than a refrigerator), this inverter generator starts up with a standard recoil pull-rope starting mechanism.

The SC2000i boasts a fuel tank capable of holding 1.1 gallon, allowing it to run continuously for around 7 hours at 50% load (with fuel usage averaging around 0.16 gallons per hour).

With a <3% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), the SC2000i delivers a clean sine wave—essential for safeguarding your delicate electronics when plugged into its AC outlets.

Outlets

Portability

Thanks to its closed inverter generator design (L21 x W12.5 x H19 in), the A-iPower SC2000i not only offers superior aesthetics but also operates with reduced noise levels compared to a typical, open frame generator. This modern design aims to provide an ideal power solution to recreational users.

The SC2000i boasts a weight of merely 46 lbs, solidifying its reputation as a lightweight, easily transportable generator. With its manageable weight, one person can easily move it around, ensuring power wherever needed. This convenience is further enhanced by its handle (molded in the case), which allows for easy carrying.
