Comparing Westinghouse iGen 2200 with iGen 2500
Sharon does a comparison of our Westinghouse iGen 2200, which we've had for about two and a half years, and our iGen 2500, which is new. The dimensions of the two generators are almost exactly the same.
With the 2200, you need to vent the gas, but the 2500 has a self-venting gas cap. On the front panel, many things are very similar with the generators. Both have covered outlets, USB charging ports, reset switch, a low oil indicator, overload indicator, an economy mode, and a ground.
The 2500 has a display that shows you the number of liters of fuel you have left, and the percentage of watts being used.
The big difference between the two generators is the capacity. The 2200 has a maximum of 2200 peak watts and 1800 running watts. The 2500 has a maximum of 2500 watts and 2200 running watts. The engine cc's are different; that's why the capacities are different.
Another difference between the two generators is the 2500 has the gas cap on a chain, so it stays with the generator while you are filling it with gas. The 2200 has a gas cap that comes off, so you have to put it somewhere while you fill your generator with gas.
The 2500 has a digital data center which will display remaining run time, power output, fuel level, voltage, and lifetime hours. Sharon did put an hour meter on top of the 2500 so she could see the hours without turning the generator on.
The two generators weigh the same amount. The inside setup for both generators is about the same. The oil fill and drain is at the same location and the carburetor is at the same place on both,
