• Homeowners who want to be sure of their ability to power their fridges, cooking tools, heating and lighting equipment during power failures
• Camping and tailgating buffs looking to enhance their experience
• Professionals who want to be able to deliver results, even during a power failure

Over the following sections, you'll uncover its power characteristics, the selection of outlets it offers, its overall portability, and the supplementary features it includes.

Power & Run Time

The Champion 100719

The Champion 100719's core is the 420 cc OHV 4-stroke engine, which runs on gasoline. With an output of 120/240V, it provides a running wattage of 7,000W and a peak wattage of 8,500W.

The inverter generator, rated for a noise of 61 dBA (just slightly more noisy than an office), provides flexibility in starting, offering both a manual recoil starter system and a convenient and efficient electric starter (battery included). Champion’s EZ Start Dial lets you intuitively start the engine with easy access to all the controls you need.

Featuring a 5.3 gallons fuel tank, the 100719 guarantees continuous power for up to 14 hours on a full tank (fuel consumption around 0.38 GPH).

Featuring a <3% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), the 100719 delivers a clean sine wave, guaranteeing the safety of your sensitive electronics plugged into its AC outlets.

Outlets

The control panel includes the following 5 AC outlets:

It also sports 1 DC outlet: there's a 12V 8A (cigarette lighter style) receptacle with which charging your batteries is made easy. Thanks to the included dual port USB adapter, you can conveniently use the DC receptacle to charge electronics such as mobile phones and tablets.

Since it boasts a twist-lock L14-30R receptacle, the 100719 is engineered to be transfer switch ready, ensuring easy integration with your breaker box to provide backup power to your home during outages.

Portability

Thanks to its closed inverter generator design (L33.4 x W29.1 x H26 in), the Champion 100719 not only offers superior aesthetics but also operates with reduced noise levels compared to a typical, open frame generator. The featured design follows the latest trends and is ideal for easy and recreational use.

Since the generator weighs 211.6 lbs, it will be incredibly difficult to manually lift it and transport it, even though it is technically considered to 'be portable' (in the sense that it is movable). Still, once it is on the ground, its set of wheels (⌀9.5") and its folding handle can easily solve the issue of low mobility and allow for easy relocation of the device.

Features

The 100719's control panel

The 100719's control panel is equipped with a digital Intelligauge data center, furnishing detailed information on the lifetime run hours, frequency and voltage for you to easily track its activity and status.

In addition to this info, a light indicator allows you to instantly see if its oil levels are insufficient.

Featuring a built-in fuel gauge, the inverter generator offers quick, convenient, and easy gas level checks at a glance.

From a security standpoint, the generator is furnished with an overload protection (circuit breaker) and an automatic low oil shut-off, ensuring peace of mind during operation.

The unit also benefits from the CO Shield™ technology, which monitors accumulation of poisonous carbon monoxide (CO) gas produced by the engine's exhaust when the generator is running. If CO Shield™ detects elevated levels of CO gas, it automatically shuts off the engine and illuminates a red LED.

In addition to the traditional documentation and an owner's manual (opens in a new tab) to help you get started promptly, the Champion 100719 also includes several accessories: oil, dual port USB adapter, RV adapter, funnel and battery charging cables.
