Tools and Hardware Reviews of ETQ TG1200 1,200 Watt 2 HP 2-Cycle Gas Powered Portable Generator (Non-CARB Compliant)

Customer Review: Very Nice Generator - good compromise
Summary: 5 Stars

Got this about a month ago for tailgates. Haven't put much time on it yet, but here are some intitial comments:

1) Mine did not come with a DC plug / adapter. Called ETQ and they said that the newer ones do not have that feature.

2) There is an error in the manual. It says to use 10w30 oil. That is NOT CORRECT. Use only 2 cycle oil. The manual is wrong.

I tested the sound level using my radio shack sound level meter and found that at 23 feet it produced around 59 dbA and at 9 feet it produced about 67 dbA. I would characterize the sound as louder than the Honda EU2000 / EU1000, but overall not too objectionable as it's kind of a low pitch sound. It's definitely why the unit is less expensive than the Honda EU, which I could not justify price-wise.

Safely Delivers Electricity to Your Appliances
