Summary
The ECHO EG-3500 is a 2,800-watt gasoline generator built around a 212 cc OHV 4-stroke engine. At this wattage, it handles essential household loads like refrigerators, sump pumps, and power tools, but cannot run a central air conditioner or multiple high-demand appliances simultaneously. The 3,500-watt peak output gives it a brief surge capacity for motor startup, which matters when powering devices with inrush current demands. ECHO positions this unit for homeowners managing short outages, campers needing overnight power, and contractors powering hand tools on job sites where grid access is unavailable.
The Westinghouse iGen2800c is a portable gasoline generator delivering 2800 peak watts and 2200 running watts. It features a CO sensor for safety, operates quietly at 52 dBA, and offers up to 12 hours of runtime on a 1.0-gallon gas tank.
