Ryobi 2300 Watt Inverter Generator with Bluetooth! It’s so Quiet! 

We have used the ru-vid.comUgkxOTeIs0vv4_9B5hsmnLsk9r930uDQLu_Y for probably 30 hours with our camper and it’s been great! The noise level is really only noticeable when running the AC and other appliances like the microwave, hair dryer, or coffee pot. It’s not huge like other ones and it has wheels so even at 90lbs, I can move it!

My Ryobi leveling drill is smoother running than my Dewalt and the purchase price was much lower.. Nice looking Gen Ryobi.

I have an older Honda 2000 with very low hours. I was going to install a soft start on my trailer AC and the manufacturer said the Honda should be able to run the AC as long as everything else is turned off. I could run the frig on propane.

Half the price of the Honda 2200i and even shows how much fuel you have. The Honda doesn't have that.

Brian, you are a great salesman. I watched your review of the Adams 2.0 Pressure Washer and decided to purchase one and now you got me thinking about adding this Ryobi Generator to my list of tools. Great review.

This is what I need for Hurricane Season. Great detail review 👍🏾

Not a bad inverter generator on paper. However the first one I had the pull cord break on the first start up. The replacement unit started but was hard to start after it was warm and it would not restart until it cooled completely. I returned it and bought something else. Wouldn't recommend one of these to anyone.

Sorry seen this a little late but wanted to chime in anyway. I have two of these for my RV and they are awsome. They start right up after about 2 years of ownership. If you instal and easystart on your A/C you can get away with that one generator running your A/C. I still us two thow as I travel at high elevations and we all know you lose power with elevation. Just FYI its nice to have two small ones VS one large one. easy for my wife to carry :) I dont allways need to run the A/C or use every thing in the rv all at once. so I only take two in the summer.

Great review getting me ready for the Florida hurricane. Thank you

Thanks so much! I just purchased the same generator from Home Depot for my new sprinter van! Job well done!!

Been using mine for mobile detailing 2 years strong. Love it. I saw that there is a new 2300 one+ model with one button push electric start that way you don't have to pull the choke. Cost more but it's a nice luxury.

Great job. I live in Houston and don’t know of any place where they sell gas without ethanol. What do I do ?

Kinda surprised that it got 80% load with the microwave which should only be eh 900watts for a RV spec microwave. Unless it's 1200. But that is still pretty low. But then again i think it's because your RV plug isn't spec correctly. I have NO clue who put '120volts 30AMPS' There is 0 possibly for it to provide 30AMPS on a single 120/110v outlet. Now if that plug had a RV to 2 110/120volt AC 15-15amp plugs. Then you'd be able to get 30amps to the RV port. So that probably explains why the above was putting such a high load of near to 80-100% with very few things + the microwave. Because you're already at 1500watts on the Single 15amp rated AC 110/120volt plug from the generator. But if you had Dual plugs from it to the RV. you could've gotten that extra 300watts and surge power. The Generator is 1800 stable watts to 2300 surge (Say the AC primes. It'll lower power After it Surges up from the compressor motor. or so forth.). But the Outlets on the generator are only rated to handle the same standard class of 1500watts/15amps as a standard home outlet does. So you'll never get 1800watts from a single plug. The ports are not shared (Atleast i think. The shouldn't be.). So you can run 1000watts on 1. And the other port can handle 800watts. Or like above 1500watts on 1 AC port and 300watts on the other. Though that is just AC alone. Since you have Split load power. The power equals from the other ports. So if you have 2 of the USB ports doing 12watts each. That's 24watts. The 12volt port having 120watts that's 142watts. Then the 2 AC ports having 1500watt 1 and the other doing 258watts will = the full 1800 of stable power. But AC ports do use 5watts Even if there is 0 devices plugged into them. It's why most electric solar generators have a option to turn them off because AC power has to change switch power. Not fully sure on how inverter generators go. But i know electric solar generators work by converting the 12volt DC power up to 110/120volts AC. Which has to change the whole power system because DC is Direct current. While AC has a faze shift system. So it needs to change the DC current to shift power. So it has to use around 4-5watts just to power the ports. And you loose about 10-15% of performance of battery life due to the conversion. Why normally it's way better on a DC setup to run straight DC. It's easier and less power converting to loose a % of battery performance. Though with Gas. You're always using gas no matter idle or running low. So even if you didn't use power from it. You're still burning fuel. Pretty good life for a idle/low power of around 17hours. Though how much it take? gallon of fuel or less? Would seem pretty nice.

Outstanding initial review video and pointing out some of the details. And thank you for trying to actually put some decent loads on it, after all; everyone's ALWAYS trying to get as much as they can out of the smallest gen set. 🤙🏾

Great video Brian👍🏼👍🏼 That's a cool little generator😎 What's the 0-60 time on that bad boy🤣😂😉

Man, Ryobi is spoiling you these days.

They will run a camper ac unit. I run mine al the time

You CAN run a house on this. Not everything, of course and you have to use hair dryer, coffee maker, etc., one at a time. I have a 2500 watt dual fuel Champion that I connected to the 30 amp outlet my electrician ran through my breaker box. I can run HVAC fan, lights, TV's, computers all at the same time and that was on propane at 1665 running watts. Probably have to turn off HVAC fan for coffee maker but so what? It gets me through the outage and the same generator works for my camper. I do like the two handles on the end of the Ryobi for lifting it into the truck.

They make the best cordless drill on the market better than most major brands but about 10 years ago their weed eater was a pos

Awesome Video, we just bought one for the snow storm in Georgia, see if we need to use it. Hope so!!!

Just got mine. 62 year old petite lady. First pull. So excited. Thank you for this video

Ryobi makes some good stuff. I have about 30 of their battery powered tools. All of them are great.

Mine runs everyday since I brought it 1.5 months ago best thing since ryobi in blue 😅

I've had this for over a year and I love it! No issues. It even fits in the trunk of my Mustang!

Shipping- everything post covid 19 has gone to sh.t. People don't care.

Can you speak to how long the generator would run if you’re just running your camper propane furnace and fan?

TO BAD IT IS NOT DUEL FUEL...MAYBE NEXT YEAR

What was the cost of it?😊

What's the DBA? Took you 15 minutes to even turn it on. Lots of room for improvement in this review. Waste of time.

Running the griots BOSS correcting cream on my wifes BMW and using the complete compound on my 2020 Titan. I love these videos on detailing. You do a great job of explaining the products, and the methods of use

can someone tell me how big is a generator 3800 watts on the outside, tall wide and long. thanks

This unit would make a great boat anchor but that would also be an insult to boat anchors. Recoil rope is nothing more than a few strands of fishing line wrapped in a velvet cover. If you get 25 pulls from it - you are the exception. Don't walk away from buying this - run - as fast as you can!

Fed ex sucks. They throw everything doesmt matter what it is. I had a fed ex guy leave a 50lb box at my curb on trash day and the garbage men took it thinking it was trash while i was still at work. Watched it on my porch camera cause i thought someone stole it but nope i was watching it in disbelief. They dont even deliver on the scheduled day they give you then you come to a broken product

Do you know the engine model number? Or what type of engine it is

Quiet? By no means this is quiet. Harbor freight and honda are running circles around mine. I feel embarrassed at the campground with how loud is mine compared to others.

THEY ARE LOUD!!!!! VERY LOUD! I'VE BEEN CAMPED NEXT TO THEM RYOBI NOISE MAKERS

holding oil container up side down, wrong way around. glug glug glug. other way lets air in to replace oil. Spout of oil container should be high point, up side of container as it is poured out.

its a unreliable piece of chitt.. will foul plug regularly...

6:04 Not surprised. FedEx fell apart after the pandemic and dropped the ball on so many occasions

will this power a Ryobi 1800psi pressure washer that's 13.2 amp and 1500watts?

After Hurricane Michael I put 1200 hours on this generator. Still have it, still runs but after I stopped using it for a year it runs rough now. Probably needs carb cleaned. Good generator.

Honestly very good video I like how you demonstrated to us while using it how it responds.

All these generators are generic. This is the same as Firman and champion all the other budget ones. Not reliable. I'd get Firman with 3 year Warranty. The stator on the units burn up easily. And check out that funnel! This is your run of the mill cheap unit. I run my generator to my 24vplt 40 amp noco charger and my pure sine wave inverter runs it all.

I would like to know if it has a off button to shut off on the generator beside Bluetooth.

I wonder if this thing would run my ridgid worm drive saw

gonna find out if it will run my Chicago electric 125 110v Flux welder

Hang on to that 12oz bottle for the oil changes. Pre=measured for the correct amount. I think I'm gonna get one of these as well. Thanks for sharing.

Hey! Do you think i could run a small ryobi electric pressure washet with that generator?

I'm trying to get away from small engines of all kinds because I'm sick and tired of rebuilding carburetors.

Very very nice I like it

Don't waste your time testing the AC That's 13,000 btu that will not run it Butt It will run an 8-9Thousand You 2 are genius is aren't you Clown show

Heat guns make the best vaporizer with the proper bong fitting, using this generator breakers won't be thrown in your house.

I accidentally spilled gas on it will it be ok ?

Lmao FedEx did the same with my ryobi mower

Ryobi makes good stuff. Thanks bro!

Found a guy selling a supposed new in box bought year ago for $400. Now $350. Guess I should get it????

Where did you get the magnetic dipstick, or, what is the thread size? There are a few different thread sizes for these dipsticks and I can't seem to find the one for this Ryobi.

My ryobi works on my 5k window unit,you just have to go full power on the generator. I didn’t know you can pair 2 gems thank you for that

Hi! I’m really new to this so I don’t understand it too much, but for the gas can I use any type of gas? Where do I buy it? Might be a really dumb question, but I’m clueless. So anybody share their input please!!

Had 2 ryobi generators. Neither one lasted more than 6 months!

I had a sportsman and it run the air on my trailer. not much of any thing else . no Micro wave with the air on. I didn't thing that sportsman would power the air.

To be fair it’s whoever shipped the generator, the box it comes in IS NOT a shipping box. Yes, a box within a box is the correct way to ship.

May I ask how you received this for free? I would love to test one

Seriously premium fuel? Waste 0f money, higher octane gas actually produces more pollution so not a good choice! I have thus exact Generator for about 4 days now & I run it on 87 octane gas & run it 24 hrs a day & it's fine! It's not a delicate machine. It will power two window air conditioners (8,000 btu & a 5100 btu) two tv's & a few lights!

I just purchase a Ryobi 2300 and this video is just what I need. I live in Houston and it's the summer of july 2024 in which we just had a direct hit from cat-1 hurricane Beryl that felt like a cat-3. People have been without power for weeks and it's still ongoing. Weather forecast predict a long hurricane season but I'm fortunate to have purchase my Ryobi 2300 which I'm sure will come in handy for me and no doubt will be in short supply once another hurricane approaches. Thanks a million for this video.

Ruining Toyota of power tools

hei. Can it run 1500w air compressor please?

Yes, fed ex is the worst! Ive had to confront 3 different drivers in the last yr over things.

I like the screw on . just one. I have a small one and it has two screws and I have to use a screw driver to get the sides off.

Loving the Ryobi testing. Keep them coming. I use Ryobi. Will be getting the polisher and then debate over getting their mower.

Tell the folks at Ryobi that I'm buying one of these based off your video

Trying to start my new one now and no luck. Did all the things , oil. Gas , pulled. Idk what I'm doing wrong

for night camping I got a river echo . in camp grounds I visit they so no generator at night.

Great video man I hope this unit runs my little Power washer and my vacuum Vacuum armor all Power washer green works 1700 psi😃👍🏻

Crap my ryobi G won't start

Weird, my predator 2000/1600 watt Gen runs my a/c no issues

So this one doesn't run on solar? Can it run on homemade biogas?

id save that funnel and keep it in the housing for proper storage and ease of access when needed

How much gas can i put in it?

If they gave you the product you were paid for the review. They know you have it and if you slam it you get nothing else

Will the generator app work on my phone when I’m out camping and there’s no WiFi? Trying to see if that feature is worth the buy! Thank you

Great video on the Ryobi generator, start about 33 sec intro is long.

I need this in my power washing van..then I can add detailing to my services😀

Nice!

First off turn thurn the oil bottle around. Cause your doing it wrong. Bottles are made to be poured with the slant side facing down.

Would this Generator be good for mobile detailing? Lets say about 6-8 hours a day of detailing cars using an electric pressure washer and a small shop vac

Awesome video buddy! I am looking at one of these for my small R Pod camper. Did you retest it with the AC running? That is the main thing I want to purchase it for. Thanks!

Beautiful review! Thanks so much from Canada!

i think honda ue7000 is quieted

Wow! Im liking the features of this generator. Bluetooth control just adds to the convenience. Your probably right, it wasn't hot enough to kick the compressor in for the AC to work. Excellent video Brian.

I have the exact same unit .. it just arrived and still factory sealed in the box. Awesome.

Is this enough power to run a shop vac?

One can run the a/c. You need soft start on your a/c. Better for it anyways!

This looks like a great generator. I prefer my two Champion 2,500 generators. Cheaper (paid $550 for each) and runs on propane as well. Would be cool if it came with bluetooth though. That's pretty awesome

So does this take just straight petrol?

Be careful with those I got two of them and the LCD screen went out on both , one was under warranty the other one wasn’t, they had to replace the gas tank so I have to replace the gas tank on this one.

Perhaps will do a review after a year or two on it. Could you include a sound meter on your next video.

Why not all brands needs to improve from quiet to silent!!!

Curious how operates if starts raining
