This is a general overview and review of the Generac GP7500E electric start generator. I have owned this for about 4 months now and have been impressed with the power and performance. I use this generator to power our entire home through a transfer switch tied into our breaker box. The generator has no problem powering all of our essentials and more when needed. There have been some complications with the generator however that I discuss in the video. I do hope that this helps anyone out there looking to purchase a generator by giving a fair and realistic review of the product.

I have this exact generator. Good machine but it is virtually impossible to get at the spark plug to change it. Any tips on how to do it is appreciated.
I got one of thses during a power outage about 8 years ago. Like yours it ran everything I wanted run for 3 days of power outage =TV, lights, AC, refrigerator, etc. I was pretty happy with it. I have no idea what happened to the battery charger, but it sits connected in my basement to a 'smart' 1am charger and a 5 gallon Blitz can of (changed every 6 months) gasoline and a jug of Mobile1, so I know I am in good shape if another power outage comes.
Hey family dad I got a question plz
How to start a Generac generator
i did buy generac generator xg8000e and i m waiting to get mine ..plus ii paid only $64.03
Honda man myself. Reliable, long lasting, safer to run unsupervised.
The castings are China I believe for Generac too I have Champion myself As well, which is my backup.
After buying my first Chinese generator, the pull cord assembly blew out after its about 30th start… that’s when I entered the world of Honda and Yamaha. You get what you pay for …
Is it possible to convert this one to propane ? in dual/fuel config
Is it possible to rig this up with an autostart ?
how many ounces of oil?
it has the weird dipstick that just has hash Mark's on it no fill level.
I looked up the 420cc and it looks like 1.1L which is 37.5 oz.
but nothing is written on the generac site
ridiculously load
no way man! Broke right away no thanks!
I attached a solar panel to my battery works great. Great video
After fifteen years I found the outlet wall charger for general generator. If I have to purchase another battery I will.
Wow, that's loud mine runs loud but doesn't rant. I owes my Generac generator 7550 for 15 years and the battery finally died. I guess I can't complaint.
Mine will not even turn over connected and charged battery and hit start and nothing at all
I have Identicle gen. It is extremely easy to pull start. If you have the rocker switch in the off position it is hard to pull start. I was wondering if you had power switch off when you tried to pull start it.
I have a GP6500 with over 12K hours and not one issue ! Maybe it was built on a Wednesday ? lol.
my uncle burnt out one of the brushes pulling around 4500w, im thinking maybe to much power from one leg of the 120 side but not sure.
Loved your video! If only mine hadn't completely seized up after just 4 hours run time. VERY EXPENSIVE PAPERWEIGHT. I am trying to find a replacement engine.
What is the white female wire thats below the starter used for???
Only gas? Lots of propane availability.
These generators are full of problems and headache.
These products are extremely low quality.
I could call generac a scam company.
Running it through your transfer switch cleans the THD enough where you can safely run sensitive electronic devices like router and computers?
Great video my man. Just purchased this generator and works great! 🙌
If you're not short of money, I wouldn't get one of these. A defect in the engine is one thing, but Generac's poor customer service honoring the warranty is unacceptable. Also, why tolerate the loud noise and rinky-dink battery charger when there are so many better-designed options? Also, there are too many stories of trouble in the comments below. Sounds like corners were cut in the design, and sloppy quality control in the manufacture of this device.
How much did it cost you?
Where can you get trickle charger
Mine had a frozen valve easy fix
I have the same exact generator. I just had it running for 6 days straight. Loud as hell, but works great. I put ply wood around it to cut down on the noise
Thanks for the video.
I wish you went a little slower showing how to start the generator.
The portable generator market is pretty much bullshit now thanks to Harbor Freight and their China engine generators. Now everything has a China engine, some clone of a Honda 212cc or 420cc, but with lower quality materials and parts. You can't get generators with decent motors like Briggs or Kohler anymore, and hardly anyone is using Honda, unless you spring for a very pricey unit from a contractor brand like Wacker Neuson. That's why the engines are so finicky about proper break-in and lubrication.
I have a gp8000e but the rebadged dewalt version essentiallysame machine as this, and with a $30 dual fuel carburetor from Ebay mine runs perfectly on natural gas or gasoline carb fits all the chonda clones duromax predator generac etc
