All Power America APG3014 Review

The following is a review of the All Power America APG3014 2,000 Watt 4-Stroke Gas Powered Portable Generator. Introducing the AGP3014 generator model, an addition to the All Power America line. A portable and lightweight generator which is best seen used in camping or as a back-up in a power outage. With a max wattage of 2000 watts and an about of 1400 this isn't the strongest 4 stroke generator on the market but is still appreciable for the modest price. It'll also run for 9 hours at 50% load which is a competitive rate for the other generators in the market.

Running Wattage

The running watts of a generator is the wattage output the generator exhibits. In order for the generator to power the tool or application it must be of lesser wattage than the generator itself. It's very important to ensure that the figures match up before purchase as otherwise the generator may not be able to run the chosen appliance. Running wattage can usually be found on some online documentation. The running wattage of the All Power America APG3014 is 1400. The starting wattage of an appliance is the maximum wattage output of the device. This is a necessary value to include as many appliances require an increase in wattage to be started up and the decrease to a lower value to maintain operation. The starting wattage of the All Power America APG 3014 is 2000.

Engine Horsepower

This portable generator exhibits 3 horsepower. The capacity of a fuel tank can be an important factor which considering which generator to buy as it ultimately has a bearing on how long the generator will be able to stay active for. The fuel tank capacity of the All Power America AGP3014 is 1.3 gallons.

Starting Method

The All Power America AGP3014 features a recoil start. Operating noise is an important feature to take into account because it determines how noisy or not the device will ultimately be.

Compliance

Bad news for potential user from California as this power generator is not CARB approved. It is however EPA approved and can be sold and operated legally in 49 states. My favorite feature of this portable generator is the ½ load run time. In the case of power outage this backup generator will provide you with power for 9 hours. That should be more than enough time for the emergency authorities to restore power to your area.
