Description
Zoom on the Energizer eZV3200P
In summary, the Energizer eZV3200P is a quiet and compact portable inverter generator especially useful for:
- Amateur DIY lovers
- Homeowners who want to be able to use the most necessary devices in their household, even during a blackout
- Camping and tailgating hobbyists looking for a portable power source
- RV travellers wishing to enhance their freedom and nomad lifestyle
The subsequent sections will explore in detail its power characteristics, the diverse outlets it provides, its overall portability, and the supplementary features it offers.
Power & Run Time
The Energizer eZV3200P
Energizer eZV3200P is equipped with a 208 cc Energizer OHV 4-stroke engine, running on gasoline and providing 120V, boasting a running wattage of 2,800W alongside a starting wattage of 3,200W. Moreover, the parallel capability (INVEZVPLKIT (opens in a new tab) not included) allows for doubling of power output when paired with another similar or compatible unit, providing increased energy capacity and reliability for diverse needs.
Enjoying a noise rating of 52 dBA (just slightly more noisy than a quiet suburb), this inverter generator can be started thanks to a conventional pull-start mechanism, but also to a straightforward and intuitive electric starter (battery included). Moreover, the eZV3200P boasts remote starting functionality, adding another layer of convenience (key fob included).
The eZV3200P's fuel tank, boasting 1.95 gallon, allows it to operate for up to 15.5 hours with a full tank (with an estimated fuel consumption of 0.13 GPH).
With a <2% Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), the eZV3200P delivers a clean sine wave—essential for safeguarding your delicate electronics when plugged into its AC outlets. This low THD is achieved thanks to Energizer’s Dual Wave Technology, which controls both voltage and current for a pure sine wave output, under any load.
Outlets
The control panel features the following 3 AC outlets:
In addition, it provides 1 DC outlet: there's a 12V 5A receptacle making battery charging a breeze.
Despite not having the 'RV Ready' status, this Energizer generator provides the benefit of convenient RV compatibility through its L5-30R receptacle, enabling you to easily power your RV using an L5-30P to TT-30R adaptor.
Portability
As the Energizer eZV3200P is an inverter generator, its encased design (L22.8 x W16.7 x H17.5 in) offers more aesthetics than a conventional, open frame product. The generator has a contemporary design, convenient for recreationally generating power.
As the eZV3200P's weight is only 96 lbs, it can follow you and your power needs anywhere. Additionally, it can be easily moved with the help of its set of 2 wheels and its folding handle, once it is on the ground.
Features
The eZV3200P's control panel
The eZV3200P's control center features a convenient meter, showing voltage, frequency, and lifetime hours metrics to aid you with the monitoring of its status and activity.
In addition to this info, the generator's light indicators provide visual feedback when the generator is on overload, the generator is ready and its oil levels are insufficient.
Benefiting from its built-in fuel gauge, the inverter generator allows for easy and immediate gas level inspections.
Regarding security, the generator comes with an overload protection (circuit breaker) and an automatic low oil shut-off, providing peace of mind during operation.
While the standard documentation and an owner's manual (opens in a new tab), helpful for starting the device promptly, come with the Energizer eZV3200P, the following accessories are also included: tool kit, funnel, battery charging cables and key fob.

The Energizer eZV3200P versus other generators
The following charts are provided to give you an idea of how some of the key specs of the Energizer eZV3200P compare to inverter generators of similar power (between 2500 and 3500 W).
- Having a dry weight of 96 lbs, the Energizer eZV3200P belongs in the expected weight range for inverter generators which produce 2500 to 3500 rated watts. If weight is your top priority, one of the champions in this power category is the Pulsar PGD40iSCO, weighing just 46 pounds.
- At just 52 dBA rated noise level, this inverter generator is positioned as one of the quieter choices among devices delivering similar type and power. If you are concerned with noise, check out the Honda EU3000iS, which is one of the least noisy generators in its power range, with a noise rating of just 50 dBA.
- At 25% load, the eZV3200P achieves one of the longer run times compared to inverters of similar power, sustaining operations for up to 15.5 hours. For those prioritizing autonomy, the Champion 200977 could be considered, as it offers one of the longest run times among generators with similar power output, reaching up to 22 hours.
- While run time is vital, it hinges on the fuel capacity. To grasp the full picture, we must also factor in fuel efficiency. This inverter generator can be considered as one of the most fuel-efficient, due to its low estimated fuel consumption of only 0.13 GPH (gallon per hour) at 25% load, within the aforementioned wattage range.
The bottom line
- Several accessories included
- Remote start
- Parallel capable
- Inverter
- Quiet for its power (52 dBA)
- High run time
- Fuel efficient
- Decent weight (96 lbs)
The Energizer eZV3200P doesn't have any notably low specs.
