The Champion 100809 is a 4000-watt portable inverter generator with a 149cc engine, 3000 running watts and CO Shield carbon monoxide shut-off. It weighs 48.1 lb, one of the lightest in its watt class, and runs at 64 dBA from 23 feet. It suits campers, tailgaters and RV owners who want clean power for electronics and a TT-30R outlet, but Champion says it is not for emergency home backup. Against larger 4000-watt inverters it trades tank size and run time for weight, and it is recoil-start only, with no electric start.

The Champion Power Equipment 100809 is a portable 4000-watt inverter generator with CO Shield. It is made for camping, tailgating, powering items around an RV, or providing backup for a few basics. It is not recommended for emergency home backup.
A 149cc Champion engine runs on gasoline and produces 4000 starting watts and 3000 running watts. A full 1.54-gallon tank runs up to 10 hours at 25% load. It starts with a recoil pull, and Cold Start Technology helps it start quickly in cold weather. Economy Mode monitors the electrical load to reduce engine speed, noise and fuel consumption. It produces Clean Power (< 3% THD) for sensitive electronics.
The generator comes fully assembled and has a built-in carrying handle. It weighs 48.1 pounds. CO Shield monitors carbon monoxide buildup and automatically shuts off the engine if it detects unsafe levels. A low oil shut-off sensor is also built in. CO Shield is not a substitute for an indoor carbon monoxide alarm or for safe operation. Always use the generator outdoors, far from occupied buildings, with the exhaust pointed away from people and buildings.
