So Far So Good - 7000 exl
I have owned the 7000 EXL Purchased from Home Depot for about $1100 for over a year.Came with 12v cables, extenda-panel, and great wheels.I added an hour meter, lock, and cover.I start it regularly and have only used it for primary power last Thanksgiving for about 3 hours.I also have a Generac manual transfer switch to power my house.

I regularly start the unit and it runs well.I corresponded with Generac (and the engineers that produced this unit) before purchase.My OVH IC engine is produced by Generac in Wisconsin (Generac is now owned by B&S).The unit has electronic idle control, pressurized lubrication, spin on oil filter, and low oil shut off to kill the engine when oil gets low (not just prevent a restart).

I am careful with the unit and treat it with respect (keep it maintained properly).After the 2 year warranty is over I will probably buy the kit to run it on natural gas from propane-generators.com for about $200.

I am realistic about my needs.It can power my 2 refrigs, forced hot air heat, and various other circuits in my house (master bedroom, bathroo, living room and tv's.I chose it as a portable so I could use it anywhere.

Hope this is helpful.Contact generac for questions, they are great.

Don't complain about missing battery
It is not possible to ship a lead acid battery in a ready to use condition. The acid can spill and is very hazardous. Would you feel better if it had a battery but you had to take the battery to a service center to get the acid put in?
The only problem is that the information should be better. There should be a bold label stating the lack of a battery and why and also a list of various batteries that can be used. A garden tractor battery would most likely do fine and they are about 20 dollars and widely available .

Icing Carb - Do Not Buy This Generator
CHARLOTTE, NC:Just experienced the worst ice storm of my life in Charlotte, NC.Five days later and still no power.I bought the last Generac generator from Home Depot the day after the ice storm hit, and I was requried to sign a no return policy.The generator ran for 3 hours and then quit at 11:00 pm., not to run again that night.When I tried to return it the next day, I was told by Home Depot that was not possible.They had 50 generators returned the next day for repair.They tried to blame it on 'owner error', but the truth is that Generac has poorly designed the generator for cold weather.In cold and damp conditions (winter basically), the air intake pulls in cold, moist air which freezes after 1 hour or so, eventually choking out the carbeurator.It thaws within an hour after stopping, and then it will run for another 45 minutes or so (maybe).The air intake needs to come off of the exhaust manifold like most good models that are more expensive.This engine is built by Briggs and Straton, and is sold under Generac and Porter Cable (perhaps others too).Do not waste your money like I have, and do not sign a no return policy from anywhere.Home Depot knows this problem exists and won't do the right thing by taking returns for defective merchandise.They told me that Generac advised them to tell their customers to cut a hole in the shipping box, and put the box over the generator while running.While this seemed like a fire hazzard to me, I was desperate for heat and tried it.I did and it did not work either.Shame on Home Depot and Generac - they have just lost a customer for life. ...

Great generator
I bought it new 18 months before Y2K.The main selling point for me was the Honda engine.More than enough watts for multiple loads, AC, fridge, wash machine. All at the same time.Have not had any problems in 250 hrs of operation.Uses about 1 gal of fuel per hr at full load. Be aware if you intend to run it on propane you will need a 100lb tank or better. 20lb grill size tank is too small.I am very happy with this genset.

Good but loud
I really like the performance of the BSV800 but the one thing I
don't like is the noise.It's got the 14hp B&S Vanguard engine
(very good engine) but it sounds like a Mac truck.I've been looking to get a motorcycle muffler for the thing...Performance
wise it's great - I've got a 3200 sf house and it easily runs the
well pump, furnace blower, fridge, furnace exhaust blower and
some room circuits. ... Read more

A LIFESAVER!
We bought this generator for hurricane season and it's served through several of those plus a severe ice storm that left us with no power for four days. Saved the lives of the fish in our aquarium by powering the filter system as well as the food in our refrigerator and freezer. Could also be used by campers who don't want to "rough it all the way." Highly recommend for any household who wants an alternate power source for emergencies or any garage, tailgate party - the uses are endless. We got much better gas "mileage" than the manufacturer promised as well. A great value for the money. Highly recommend! ... Read more
