Overview
Not a dual fuel unit, the Pulsar PG2300iS runs on gasoline through a small four-stroke engine and a recoil pull start. An inverter produces the output, and a USB port charges small devices.
Compact size and a USB port suit camping and light outages, and the title says the output can be paralleled. The limitation is the short listed runtime on one tank, and the pull start.
Who it's for
Campers, tailgaters and people who need a small backup source for phones, lights and small appliances will use the weight and USB port. Anyone who needs electric start or a larger fuel tank should look at a bigger unit.
Pros and cons
- Compact and lightweight
- Parallel capable per title
- Recoil start only
- Runtime is short
- Noise level not given
Performance notes
A small engine turns a generator head, and the inverter conditions the output for electronics. Running watts set the continuous load, and starting watts cover brief surges. The tank size sets how many hours it runs before refueling.
