Product Description
Kipor Sinemaster IG2000 (used to call KGE2000Ti) digital inverter generators are approximatly 50% smaller and lighter than traditional generators because the alternator is directly connected to the engine, and the flywheel is therefore eliminated. The voltage is constantly adjusted to maintain at 120V by the computer inverter module. The light weight design makes them ideal for transportation. Kipor digital generators are equipped with the unique smart-throttle. It can automatically regulate the engine speed according to the load, so the fuel consumption of digital generator sets is lower by 20%-40% than traditional sets, the running time is therefore much longer. The noise level is further reduced at lower running speed. Sinemaster digital inverter generators have a new two-tiered noise dampening system, so the noise emitted by these generators is 6-9 dB less than traditional generators. This translates to 4 to 8 times quieter than conventional generators. A 3 dB drop in noise level represents the half amount on the actual noise. This meets the new noise ordinances that some state and national parks have adopted. Rated Frequency (Hz): 60 , Rated Voltage (V): 120 , Rated Current (A): 13.3 , Rated Rotatin Speed (rpm): 4500 , Rated Output Power (W): 1600 , Max.

 Kipor 2000 Watt Generator in a Red colored case July 5, 2008

I have a Kipor 2000 in a Red case it says American Power on the side, but it's a Kipor.
I bought it at PepBoys in town. I bought it to power 4- 300watt Lights on my boat to Flounder Gig at night. It ran very well, but had a small oil leak. I did buy the extended warranty, as this thing would be used around Saltwater. I don't usually buy extended warranties.
I called the importer in Ca. and they gave me the name of a local shop that would do the warranty work on it. I was familiar with this shop and they have a good reputation. They worked with the importer to get the parts, but the importer dropped the ball. Then they sent only the one seal and the repair shop wanted to replace ALL the seals.
I got it back and it leaked worse. :( The repair shop also told me they would NOT be doing any more warranty work for these people.
I said the heck with it and took it back to PepBoys and explained what I had done and that I wanted a new one, which they gave me.
While this was all going on a buddy of mine bought one also from Pep Boys. His is fine.
The new one I got is much harder to start. Lot's of pulling on the rope. :(
I have my brother looking at it now to see if he can fine tune it to start easier. He mess's with small engines and motorcycles all the time.
I'm not real thrilled. If I had to do it over it would be a Honda.

Buyer Beware!
This thing works great at low altitude levels but beware once you get up above 4000 feet. I had one and tried to run it at just under 5000 feet and it died. You will need to purchase jets off the internet for about 22 bucks and that may solve your problem. I camp alot above 8000 feet so I just returned it.
At 1200 feet where I live it ran most things well. Including the microwave in my trailer. It would not run my 7 inch Craftsman skill saw if I pulled the trigger quick. It didn't like the start up. I would not recomend this unit for running larger power tools on it.
If you have the choice go with the Honda or Yamaha. It is worth the few extra bucks. This is my second China made generator and my last.
Poor quality generator March 18, 2008

I bought a Kipor portable generator 2000 watts. When it arrived it would not start. The cord rewind finally broke. I returned it to the seller and he shipped me another one. When it came it would not start. The seller suggested resetting the spark plug gap. It finally started but run rough. I did not use it for several months. When I tried to use it again it would not start. Finally after changing the spark plug it started but quit running. I have not been able to find the problem and it is out of warranty. I finally bought a honda with a 2 year warranty that works great.

I own a Honda generator (not pure power) and the new and improved ig2000 sinewave (pure power) generator.....if you use any electronics at all, you will want to use something that is "pure" for fear that it may ruin that piece of equipment you cherish. The Kipor is a bit quieter than the Honda....the run time looks to be a bit longer than the Honda, the unit weight is lighter. The price is about 300.00 dollars less, but you get a lot for your money......two year warranty. It's a keeper.
Great Quiet Generator July 3, 2007

Almost Identical to the Honda 2000. Runs very well. Starts very easy. Runs about 5+ hours on a tank of gas
