| Summary | The Champion 1200-Watt Portable Generator with CO Shield® offers reliable power with a 79cc engine, providing 1500 starting watts and 1200 running watts. It features a CO Shield® carbon monoxide auto shutoff system, ensuring safety during operation. With a 1.46-gallon fuel tank, it delivers up to 10 hours of run time at 50% load and operates at a noise level of 65 dBA from 23 feet. | The Firman P01202 is a 1200-watt portable gas generator built around an 80cc OHV 4-stroke engine with a cast iron sleeve. At this wattage, it powers small household appliances like microwaves, window air conditioners, and power tools, but not multiple heavy loads simultaneously. The 1.7-gallon fuel tank delivers 10 hours of runtime at 50% load, meaning a full day of intermittent use without refueling. Weighing only 55 pounds and measuring 17.5 by 14.2 by 15 inches, this unit fits in car trunks and garage corners. It runs at 64 decibels, which is moderate noise output suitable for residential areas when placed at a distance from living spaces. |
